STONE  FORT 


As  we  move  from  an  industrial 
to  on  information  society,  we  will 
use  our  brainpower  to  create  in- 
stead of  our  physical  power,  and 
the  technology  of  the  day  will  ex- 
tend and  enhance  our  mental  abili- 
ty. As  we  take  advantage  of  the 
opportunity  for  job  growth  and  in- 
vestment in  all  the  sunrise  in- 
dustries, we  must  not  lose  sight  of 
the  need  to  balance  the  human 
element  in  the  face  of  all  that 
technology.

^  ime  is  a  threefold  present:  the  present  as  we  ex- 

perience it,  the  past  as  a  present  memory,  and  the 
future  as  a  present  expectation."  —  St. 
Augustine. 

"If  what  St.  Augustine  wrote  is  true,  then  tomor- 
row is  already  here.  The  future  is  now.  The  goal  is  to  try  to 
ascertain  whether  ten,  twenty-five,  one  hundred  or  even  a 
thousand  years  hence,  the  decisions  made  today  to  do  or  not 
to  do  something  will  have  a  good  or  harmful  effect 


The  space  shuttle  Discovery  is  part  of  the  future 
as  we  know  it  today 


upon  men  and  women  living  at  that  future  time,"  says  Her- 
man Kahn  in  the  foreword  to  The  Future.  Kahn  concludes, 
"Clearly  technology  interacts  with  values,  new  technological 
development  is  largely  dependent  upon  the  values  that  led  to 
the  decision  to  develop  it  or  to  forgo  its  development." 

The  space  shuttle  Discovery,  shown  here,  is  part  of  the 
future  as  we  know  it  today.  Harold  Goodwin  stated  in  Space: 
Frontier  Unlimited,  published  in  1962,  "There  are  many 
reasons  for  going  to  the  moon,  and  space  science  is  one.  The 
point  is  that  no  one  has  tried  to  justify  the  lunar  program  on 
scientific  grounds  alone.  The  moon  as  an  objective  has  been 
misunderstood.  The  moon  is  a  national  goal  to  be  reached,  if 
possible,  before  the  end  of  the  decade,  but  the  first  manned 
landing  is  only  a  focus,  and  a  beginning." 

While  Goodwin  was  by  no  means  shortsighted,  one 
wonders  if  he  and  his  NASA  contemporaries  could  have  envi- 
sioned what  America's  space  program  includes  today:  space 
manufacturing,  potential  for  military  operations, 
astronomical  observatories,  communication  technology  ,  a 
manned  space  station  and  satellite  recovery. 

John  Naisbitt,  author  of  Megatrends,  says  the  successful 
flight  of  the  first  space  shuttle  in  1981  was  far  more  impor- 
tant to  society  in  this  century  than  to  any  future  age  of  space 
exploration  because  shuttles  can  launch  satellites. 

As  the  information  age  emerges,  he  says,  technology  like 
that  of  the  space  shuttle  will  enhance  an  emerging  global 
village  in  which  instantaneously  shared  information  and  com- 
munication is  no  longer  an  idea  of  the  future  but  is  a  reality.

6  -  Telescope 


An  $800,000  telescope  in  a  dome  sitting  in  a  forested 
area  1 1  miles  north  of  Macogdoches  represents  one 
contrast  produced  by  the  technological  times  in 
which  we  are  living.  It  is  a  constrast  because  this  is 
no  ordinary,  hand-held  telescope.  Besides  its 
monetary  worth,  this  41-inch  telescope  holds  the  distinction 
of  being  the  largest  telescope  in  the  CI.  S.  Central  time  zone, 


. . .  this  is  no  ordinary,  hand-held  telescope 


according  to  Dr.  Thomas  O.  Callaway,  chairman  of  the 
Department  of  Physics.  Only  13  other  observatory  sites  in  the 
United  States  have  such  a  large  telescope,  Dr.  Callaway  said. 

Although  in  one  sense  the  Cassegrain  reflecting  telescope 
is  just  one  more  scientific  invention,  in  another  sense  it  has  an 
intrinsic  meaning  because  it  reveals  something  about  the 
direction  in  which  exploration  of  space  is  moving.  "We'll 
move  to  the  moon.  It's  obvious.  Men  go  wherever  they  can," 
Dr.  Callaway  said. 

Whether  one  accepts  this  statement  or  not,  the  fact  is  that 
space  remains  a  viable  frontier.  Dr.  Callaway  said,  "I  think  by 
the  year  2,000  we'll  have  a  number  of  space  stations  that  are 
manned."  Contributing  to  his  vision  of  the  future  is  the  com- 
puter which  controls  the  telescope.  Dr.  Callaway  describes 
the  telescope  as  being  like  a  giant  robot  with  an  eye  directed 
by  the  computer.  Observers  see  what  the  telescope  sees  by 
watching  a  television  monitor  inside  the  dome. 

"We're  involved  in  making  scientific  discoveries  that  will 
ultimately  bring  knowledge  to  mankind,"  Dr.  Callaway  said. 
The  "we"  includes  Dr.  Robert  W.  Gruebel,  professor  of 
physics;  Dr.  Norman  L.  Markworth,  associate  professor  of 
physics;  Bennette  Montes,  physics  mechanic,  and  students. 
The  observatory  was  built  in  1975  and  until  September  1984 
had  only  an  18-inch  reflector  telescope.  This  telescope  is  still 
housed  in  a  smaller  dome. 

Barbed  wire  like  that  in  the  foreground  of  the  cover  photo 
was  once  a  part  of  a  new  and  different  America  as  wilderness 
was  transformed  into  civilization.  The  telescope  housed  in  the 
SFA  Observatory  reflects  a  new  and  different  nation  and 
world  in  which  even  the  sky  is  no  longer  an  invincible  limit.  0

For  years  we  denied  that  our  industrial  base  was  eroding 
steadily,  even  though  it  was  happening  right  before  our  eyes. 
Our  inability  to  see,  however,  and  our  penchant  for  denying 
even  what  we  saw,  were  only  natural,  for  the  truth  was  too 
painful,  too  threatening.  Because  our  industrial  economy  had 
served  us  so  long,  its  demise  was  -  for  many  of  us  -  unthinkable," 
says  John  Naisbitt. 

While  no  one  can  predict  the  shape  of  the  new  world  of  high 
technology,  Mr.  Naisbitt,  the  author  of  Megatrends  ,  says,  "The  most 
reliable  way  to  anticipate  the  future  is  by  understanding  the 
present.'" 

That  a  new  world  is  coming,  Mr.  Naisbitt  is  sure.  In  fact  he  says  the 
most  important  and  critical  megatrend  or  restructuring  of  society  to 
come,  is  the  movement  away  from  an  industrial  economy  and  the 
movement  toward  an  information-electronics  economy. 

As  more  technology  is  introduced  into  society  people  will  want  to 
be  with  other  people  more.  "Shopping  malls,  for  example,  are  now 
the  third  most  frequented  space  in  our  lives,  following  home  and  the 
workplace,"  Mr.  Naisbitt  says.  High  tech/high  touch  as  a  principle, 
he  says,  symbolizes  the  need  for  balance  between  our  physical  and 
spiritual  realities. 

"The  number  of  universities  offering  some  type  of  futures-oriented 
degree  has  increased  from  two  in  1969  to  over  45  in  1978,"  Mr. 
Naisbitt  says.  He  lists  some  information  occupations  one  can  prepare 
for,  including:  programmers,  teachers,  clerks,  librarians,  secretaries, 
accountants  and  stock  brokers.  Also  managers,  insurance  people, 
bureaucrats,  lawyers,  bankers  and  technicians. 

About  computers,  Mr.  Naisbitt  says,  "It  is  important  to  think  about 
the  computer  as  a  tool  that  manages  complexity  because  just  as 
surely  as  highways  only  encourage  more  cars,  having  a  tool  that 
manages  complexity  invites  more  and  more  complexity  into 
society."  0

Political  decisions  will  be  made  more  often  at 
the  grassroots  level.  Churches,  schools  and 
family  structures  will  be  changed.  Govern- 
ments will  have  to  adapt  to  societies  made  up 
of  minorities  of  all  kinds.  Electronics  and  com- 
puters will  create  a  new  sphere  of  information  in 
homes  and  businesses  with  more  people  working  at 
home. 

The  key  political  unit  of  the  past,  the  nation-state 
will  be  modified.  Instantaneous  global  communication 
will  be  a  way  of  life.  The  media  will  appeal  more  to  in- 
dividual's special  interests  than  to  the  masses. 

New  industries  in  computer  and  data  processing, 
aerospace,  petrochemicals,  advanced  communication 
and  others  will  replace  old  industries  in  oil,  coal,  tex- 
tiles, steel,  auto,  rubber  and  machine  tool 
manufacture. 

These  are  part  of  Alvin  Toffler's  vision  of  the  future 
which  he  presents  in  The  Third  Wave  . 

Society  is  a  product  of  three  great  waves  of 
changes,  according  to  Mr.  Toffler.  The  first  wave 
descended  upon  the  world  when  agricultural  societies 
began  around  10,000  years  ago.  About  300  years  ago 
the  industrial  revolution  formed  a  second  wave  of 
changes  that  permeated  the  world.  Today,  society  is 
facing  a   third  wave  of  pervasive  technological 


changes  that  is  in  conflict  with  the  second  wave 
because  the  changes  are  happening  very  quickly. 

"Old  ways  of  thinking,  old  formulas,  dogmas  and 
ideologies,  no  matter  how  cherished  or  how  useful  in 
the  past,  no  longer  fit  the  facts,"  Toffler  says.  "We 
cannot  cram  the  embryonic  new  world  of  tomorrow 
into  yesterday's  conventional  cubbyholes." 

Toffler  uses  waves  as  metaphors  for  change 


"We  cannot  cram  the  embryonic  new  world  of 
tomorrow  into  yesterday's  conventional 
cubbyholes. " 


because  waves  are  strong  forces  which  man  cannot 
stop  but  which  can  be  put  to  positive  use.  "No 
metaphor  tells  the  whole  story  from  all  sides,  and 
hence,  no  vision  of  the  present,  let  alone  the  future 
can  be  complete  and  final." 

The  author  concludes,  "In  a  time  of  exploding 
change  -  with  personal  lives  being  torn  apart,  the  ex- 
isting social  order  crumbling,  and  a  fantastic  new  way 
of  life  emerging  on  the  horizon  -  asking  the  very 
largest  of  questions  about  the  future  is  not  merely  a 
matter  of  intellectual  curiosity.  It  is  a  matter  of 
survival." 

Mr.  Toffler  says  that  the  long-range  view  of  the 
third  wave  should  invoke  optimism  even  though  the 
transitional  years  ahead  are  likely  to  be  stormy  and 
crisis  ridden.  "When  I  say  something  'will'  happen," 
he  says,  "I  assume  the  reader  will  make  appropriate 
discount  for  uncertainty."  0

American  Telephone  &  Telegraph  broke  up  into  eight  separate  companies  in 
1984,  Toffler's  prediction  of  the  disintegration  of  large  corporations  seemed  to 
be  fulfilled,  at  least  in  part.

The  high-tech  world 


12  CP  6 


of  SFA  computers 


By  Mark  Palace 

Imagine  yourself  in  one  of  the  most 
difficult  classes  you  have  ever  taken. 
The  first  few  weeks  go  by,  and  you 
realize  the  dreaded  first  test  day  is 
quickly  approaching.  Sure  enough,  the 
professor  walks  in  one  morning  and  an- 
nounces that  the  test  questions  have 
been  compiled.  However,  there  is  no 
test  date.  The  professor  simply  states 
that  you  are  to  take  the  test  at  your  con- 
venience within  the  next  two  weeks. 

You  are  instructed  to  go  to  the  com- 
puter center,  type  in  your  class  on  one 
of  the  dozens  of  terminals,  and  the  test 
will  appear  on  the  screen.  After  you 
have  completed  the  test,  your  score  will 
automatically  appear.  You  cannot 
believe  it.  You  can  take  the  test  any 
time  you  want,  eliminating  the 
pressures  of  all  night  cramming.  You 
feel  you  may  even  be  able  to  raise  you 
test  score  because  of  the  individuality 
and  convenience  of  this  new  system  of 
taking  exams. 

The  scene  described  above  is  not  a 
scene  of  the  future.  Brigham  Young 
University  is  currently  using  a  com- 
puter test  service  program  that  enables 
students  to  take  a  test  at  their  in- 
dividual convenience. 

However,  not  only  has  Brigham 
Young  utilized  computers  to  benefit  the 
students,  but  colleges  across  the  nation 
have  witnessed  the  "computer  boom" 
that  has  ignited  in  the  rapidly  changing 
world  of  high  tech. 

Here  at  SFA  computers  have  revolu- 
tionized different  methodologies  in  near- 
ly every  department.  At  the  heart  of  this 


high-tech  revolution  across  our  campus 
is  the  Computer  Center.  Mr.  Billy  Click, 
director  of  the  center,  is  a  vital  key  in 
computer  development  on  campus.  He 
says  that  SFA  purchased  its  first  com- 
puter in  1963  for  accounting. 

He  also  states  that  over  the  last  21 
years,  the  supply  of  computers  and 
computer  terminals  has  been  continual- 
ly upgraded.  Although  the  first  people 
working  with  computers  on  campus 
worked  in  the  fiscal  office,  expansion 
allowed  the  development  of  the  Com- 
puter Center  in  1969.  Since  its  forma- 
tion, the  Computer  Center  has  become 
a  campus  utility. 

Over  the  past  15  years,  this  utility 
has  enabled  nearly  every  department  to 
grow  in  the  high-tech  world  of  com- 
puters. Of  these  departments,  the  one 
probably  most  familiar  to  the  majority 
of  students  is  the  library's  online 
system.  Installed  only  about  five  years 
ago,  it  is  a  perfect  example  of  how  com- 
puters have  become  part  of  everyday 
life  on  the  SFA  campus. 

Other  departments  which  have 
grown  in  the  computer  field  include  the 
math  department,  which  had  its  first 
microchip  computer  installed  only 
about  four  years  ago;  the  School  of 
Education,  which  has  20  computers  to 
teach  computer  literacy;  and  the 
history  department,  which  now  uses  a 
computer  system  to  place  hundreds  of 
test  questions  at  the  professors' 
fingertips. 

If  the  teacher  desires,  he  or  she  can 
use  this  system  to  select  certain  ques- 
tions to  be  compiled  and  typed  out  into 
test  form.  Despite  these  and  many  other 


departments'  utilizing  computers  in- 
dividually, the  computer  science  depart- 
ment uses  about  50  percent  of  all  com- 
puters in  the  Computer  Center. 

Along  with  the  impact  of  computer 
technology  at  SFA  came  the  formation 
of  the  University  Computing  Committee 
in  1982.  The  committee,  whose 
members  are  appointed  by  President 
William  R.  Johnson,  handles  all  pro- 
posals for  new  computers  requested  by 
individual  departments. 

Their  main  concern  is  whether  or  not 
each  purchase  would  be  the  best  possi- 
ble way  to  solve  any  departmental  pro- 
blems. The  committee's  chairman,  Dr. 
Craig  Wood,  is  also  head  of  the  com- 
puter science  department.  Dr.  Wood 
states  that  the  main  frame  computer 
system  on  campus  is  the  Central  Pro- 
cessing 6  (CP-6). 

This  system,  along  with  dozens  of  ter- 
minals across  the  campus  has  enabled 
SFA  to  provide  its  students  with  the 
educational  advances  necessary  in  the 
modern,  technological  world. 

Overall,  the  computer  systems  used 
at  SFA  have  grown  immensely  and  will 
continue  to  grow  as  the  high-tech 
revolution  engulfs  the  world.  In  fact,  the 
single  largest  computer  purchase  by 
the  Computer  Center  occurred  this  past 
summer  with  a  total  of  80  computers 
added  to  the  already  growing  supply.  It 
may  not  be  long  before  students  can 
walk  into  the  Computer  Center  and  take 
a  test  in  calculus,  psychology  or  any 
other  subject  as  a  result  of  the  high-tech 
developments  at  SFA.

(CP-6),  the  campus's  main  frame  computer.

Indira  Ghandi  slain;  son  takes  office 

Indian  prime  minister  Indira  Ghandi  was  slain  October  31,  1984,  by  two 
of  her  guards.  Sectarian  violence  followed  within  the  nation.  Her  son,  Rajiv 
Ghandi,  succeeded  her.  He  took  office  on  December  31. 


Scientists  predict  nuclear  winter 

A  serious  prediction  about  the  effects  of  nuclear  explosions  on  the  earth 
was  presented  by  leading  scientists  during  early  1984.  The  prediction  was 
a  result  of  studies  done  with  computer  simulations  of  blast  effects  and 
radiation  emitted  during  nuclear  explosions.

Dallas  bank  runs  without  cash 

The  Lone  Star  National  Bank  in  Dallas  was  reported  to  be  running 
without  cash  in  January  1985.  However,  bankruptcy  was  not  the  cause. 
As  a  result  of  technology,  the  bank  transfers  money  and  conducts  all  its 
customer  transactions  electronically. 


Reagan  wins  again 

Representing  the  Democratic  ticket  in  the 
1984  presidential  race  were  Walter  Mondale

A  severe  drought  in  the  African  nation  of 
Ethiopia  came  to  the  world's  attention  in 

1984.  The  dry  land  and  deaths  from  starva- 
tion had  not  abated  much  in  the  spring  of 

1985,  although  many  organizations  from 
around  the  world  had  sent  food  supplies  and 
medical  personnnel  into  the  country.

"Computers  in  Crisis" 

Virtually  all  computer  programs 
keep  track  of  the  date  with  six  digits, 
such  as  08-26-84.  This  will  cause  a 
major  problem  in  the  year  2,000 
when  12  31-99  becomes  01-01-00. 
Persuading  a  computer  that  "00"  is  a 
higher  number  than  "99"  won't  be 
easy.  Experts  disagree  over  whether 
this  problem  can  be  solved  easily. 

The  problem  is  pondered  in  a  book 
by  Jerome  and  Marilyn  Murray, 
"Computers  in  Crisis."  Reprogramm- 
ing  computer  systems,  even  if 
started  today,  would  not  avoid  a 
crisis. 


Education, 
Occupations 

Historians  needed 

"Historians,  or  other  liberal  arts 
graduates,  have  the  capacity  for 
communication  and  the  assimila- 
tion of  knowledge  that  someone 
with  a  highly  specialized  and 
technical  education  may  not," 
said  Dr.  Henry  Dethloff,  head  of 
the  Texas  ASM  history 
department. 

Careers  changing 

The  concept  of  "Career"  has 
dramatically  changed  in  the  last 
decade.  Technical  professionals 
who  do  not  stay  abreast  of  the 
latest  changes  and  innovations  in 
their  fields  run  the  risk  of  becom- 
ing the  laid-off  workers  of  the 
1990s. 

Service  workers 

Preparing  and  serving  food, 
helping  physicians  examine  pa- 
tients, cutting  and  styling  hair, 
and  caring  for  children  and  elderly 
persons  are  all  jobs  performed  by 
service  workers.  These  jobs  will 
remain  important  in  the  informa- 
tion age. 


Olympics  attract  crowds 

American  athletes  went  for  the  gold 
during  the  summer  of  1984  at  the  XXIII 
Olympiad  in  Los  Angeles.  The  Olym- 
pics were  attended  by  53  million  in  Los 
Angeles.  At  right  a  businessman  hangs 
out  the  American  flag  in  preparation  for 
the  Olympic  Parade  in  Dallas.

Living  in  the 
Information  Age 

Juror  used  computer 

A  two-week  long  trial  ended  in 
mistrial  in  Galveston  when  County 
Judge  Ron  Wilson  decided  a  juror 
violated  court  guidelines  by  turning  to 
his  home  computer  for  help.  A  com- 
puter printout  was  found  in  the  jury 
room  showing  the  juror  had  posed  ques- 
tions to  his  machine. 


Computers  for  the  blind 

The  blind  now  have  two  methods  of 
using  computers  because  of 
technological  developments.  They  are 
speech  synthesizers  and  Braille.  Pro- 
grams are  available  that  instruct  speech 
synthesizers  to  read  all  or  selected  parts 
of  a  computer  screen. 


Cellular  phones  change  offices 

The  mobile  telephone  has  been 
around  for  several  decades,  but 
technical  advances  have  brought  it  to  a 
new  age  -the  "cellular  communications 
age,"  which  is  bringing  with  it  the  first 
truly  practical  cellular  car  telephone. 


"There  will  be  no  nuclear 
war.  There's  too  much  real

Phones,  computers  merge 

Companies  have  developed  a  pot- 
pourri of  devices  combining  the  func- 
tion of  computer  and  telephone.  The 
two  have  been  merged  as  a  result  of 
voice  -data  integration.  Offices  of  the 
future  are  expected  to  be  the  most 
affected  by  this  new  technology. 

"It  is  my  viewpoint  that,  at  some 
point,  the  telephone  will  simply 
disappear  from  the  office  desk," 
says  Gary  Carlsted  of  Dataquest,  a 
market  research  company.  The  new 
telephone/computers  are  called 
IVDTs  and  exist  in  a  number  of  forms 
depending  on  the  manufacturer.

Think  tank  ponders  our  future 


The  World  Future  Society 
forecasts  that  by  the  end  of  the  cen- 
tury there  will  be  100,00  people  in 
the  United  States  over  the  age  of 
100,  as  the  age  85-and-older  group 
grows  faster  than  any  other  segment 
of  the  population.  Some  of  their 
other  predictions  are:  1)  While  peo- 
ple are  living  longer,  animal  and 
plant  species  may  be  disappearing  at 
the  rate  of  10,000  a  year  by  1990, 
with  one  species  becoming  extinct 
each  hour;  2)  Blue-collar  workers  will 
make  up  only  10  percent  of  the 
American  work  force  by  the  end  of 
this  century;  3)  By  the  year  2000, 


"Earth  won't  be  able  to  sup- 
ply our  needs  forever.  That's 
why  space  will  become  such  an 
active  place.  It  makes  more

materials,  and  there  are  lots 
out  there.  An  infinite  quanti- 
ty." -Futurist  Syd  Mead 


Fate  of  embryos 
debated 

The  fate  of  stored  embryos 
stopped  being  an  abstract  issue 
with  the  "  announcement  of  the 
birth  in  Australia  of  the  first  baby, 
Zoe,  whose  first  months  of  ex- 
istence were  spent  frozen  in  liquid 
nitrogen  at  minus  325  degrees 
Fahrenheit.  Freezing  embryos  is 
not  new.  The  technique  has  been 
used  for  years  in  animal  husban- 
dry. However,  legal  guidelines 
concerning  frozen  human  em- 
bryos are  sketchy.  Professor  Lin- 
da Mohr  said,  "We  don't  want  to 
end  up  with  homeless  embryos 
that  will  just  go  on,  frozen 
(forever)." 


most  of  the  soil  in  southern  Iowa  will  be

Gourmet  mustard,  the  game  of 
squash  and  gourmet  pizza  will  be 
"in"  in  1985,  according  to  "The 
American  Forecaster  1985"  by  Kim 
Long,  35,  of  Denver  Colo.,  and  Terry 
Reim,  40,  of  Boulder.  Americans  will 
also  turn  to  minivans,  scotch,  wine 
coolers,  white  socks  and  ponytails. 

The  book  says  granola  bars,  vinyl 
roofs  on  cars,  USA  Today,  romance 
novels,  happy  hours,  Cabbage  Patch 
dolls  and  suntans  will  be  "out"  in 
1985.  Long  and  Reim  include  sec- 
tions on  politics,  the  economy,  the 
consumer,  and  leisure  and  entertain 
ment  among  others.

Status  symbols  of  '84 

What  was  "in"  in  1984?  Video- 
cassette  recorders  top  the  list  with 
10  percent  of  America's  80  million 
TV-owning  households  having  a 
VCR.  Chrysler's  minivan  sold  well  as 
did  the  Dodge  Caravan  and  the 
Plymouth  Voyager.  Another  big  hit  in 
1984  was  the  game  Trivial  Pursuit. 


predictions:  the  present  rate  of  auto  ac- 
cidents will  likely  fall  by  90  percent  in 
the  future,  if  the  promise  of  microcom- 
puter technology  holds.  Sweden  is  ex- 
perimenting with  that  technology, 
which  involves  such  devices  as  sensors 
buried  on  the  road,  in  hopes  of  making 
seat  belts  obsolete  by  2040.  Since  scien- 
tific information  grows  about  13  per- 
cent each  year,  if  information  systems 
increase  as  anticipated,  the  annual  rate 
could  jump  above  30  percent  by  the 
year  2000. 


Pi  sliced  16  million  times 

A  team  of  mathematicians  using  a 
state-of-the-art  supercomputer  at  the 
University  of  Tokyo  has  just  shat- 
tered all  records  by  calculating  the 
value  of  pi  to  16  million  decimal 
places.  However,  no  one  intends  to 
print  the  new  calculation.  "It  would 
be  a  waste  of  time  and  paper,"  said 
John  Wrench,  a  retired  Navy  Depart- 
ment mathematician!  who  edits 
Mathematics  of  Computation. 


VCR  owners  zap  TV  ads 

Advertisers  really  hate  the  idea  of 
zapping  but  American  viewers  do  not 
seem  too  concerned.  Zapping  results 
from  viewers'  irritation  with  inane 
commercials.  Issac  Asimov,  science- 
fiction  writer  and  professor  at  Boston 
College  says  his  least  favorite  ads  are 
those  for  Total  breakfast  cereal. 
"Every  time  I  see  that  commercial  I 
shout  at  the  television,  'I'm  getting 
some  of  my  vitamins  at  lunch.'" 


Students  voice  opinions  on  technology 


"I  think  we're  going  to 
take  advantage  of  space 
exploration.  We're  not 
going  to  take  it  for 
granted  anymore.  As  far 
as  banking  and  things 
like  that  computers  are 
going  to  take  over." 

Tamara  Wagner 
Dallas  freshman 


"I  think  people  like  to 
associate,  be  around  each 
other.  I  think  people  will 
continue  to  go  to 
businesses  and  offices 
(even  when  they  can 
work  at  home  via 
computer)." 

Charlie  Leslie 
Houston  sophomore 


"Space  is  limitless. 
We'll  have  lots  of  fun 
exploring  it  if  we  don't 
get  blown  up  (by  nuclear 
holocaust).  Computers 
are  the  future.  In  the  next 
ten  years  everyone  will 
have  a  computer  in  their 
house." 

Paul  Rayner 
Houston  freshman 


"Establishing  a  space 
station  would  be  the 
brightest  move  the  U.S. 
has  made  in  a  long  time.  I 
was  raised  with  computer 
technology.  I've  always 
been  taught  that  it's  just 
a  machine." 

Frank  Chandler

"I  think  computers  are 
wonderful.  I  think  they'll 
be  a  great  help  to  society. 
I  work  for  a  doctor,  and 
he  uses  a  computer.  A  lot 
of  other  doctors  didn't 
think  it  was  a  good  idea, 
but  I  did." 

Susan  Stroud 
Dallas  sophomore 


"It  seems  to  me  that 
man  is  becoming  more 
and  more  mechanized  in 
his  technology.  I  think  a 
lot  of  technology  being 
developed  to  begin  life,  to 
prolong  life  and  to  end 
life  probably  will  speed 
man's  decline."

Nine-member  board  governs  SFA 


Boards  of  non-academic  persons  were  first  used  to  govern 
universities  during  the  Italian  Renaissance,  when  governing 
authorities  took  control  of  universities  formerly  ruled  by 
students  and  appointed  citizens  to  oversee  the  institutions. 

These  boards,  most  often  called  boards  of  trustees,  serve 
today  as  the  legal  authority  of  universities.  The  SFA  Board 
of  Regents  fills  this  position  since  they  are  legally  charged 
with  governing  the  University. 

The  nine-member  SFA  Board  of  Regents  is  appointed  by 
the  governor  and  approved  by  the  state  Senate.  The  six-year 
terms  of  the  members  are  staggered  so  that  every  two  years 
three  members  rotate  off  the  board  if  not  reappointed. 


The  board  has  many  duties,  one  of  the  most  important  of 
which  is  to  appoint  the  university  president  if  the  position 
becomes  vacant.  They  also  set  room  and  board  rates,  and 
establish  a  broad  policy  for  the  administration  of  the 
University. 

Board  approval  is  required  before  many  university  func- 
tions can  be  carried  out.  Members  must  approve  changes  in 
admission  standards,  the  addition  of  new  courses  or  pro- 
grams, appointments  of  faculty,  non-budgeted  expen- 
ditures, appointment  of  architects  and  approval  of  construc- 
tion projects  and  contracts.

"Speaking  for  the  School  of  Applied

given  by  the  University  to  produce  a  stu- 
dent who  is  knowledgeable,  puts  forth  the 
effort  and  utilizes  skills  learned  here,"  said 
Dr.  James  O.  Standley,  dean  of  the  School 
of  Applied  Arts  and  Sciences.  Dr. 
Standley,  a  native  of  Nacogdoches,  | 
believes  his  role  as  dean  has  changed  in 
the  last  few  years.  Traditionally,  he  said, 
the  role  of  dean  has  been  associated  with 

I 

monitoring  the  quality  of  academic  pro- 
grams at  SFA,  but  this  is  now  being  given 
over  to  the  faculty.  "Now  dean  is 
equivalent  to  a  mid-management  position. 
I  deal  with  budgets,  personnel,  university 
policy,  promotions  and  scholarships."  Dr. 
Standley  tries  to  give  students  in  the 
School  of  Applied  Arts  and  Sciences 
hands-on  experience  in  their  fields  of  study 
through  internships,  guest  speakers  and 
field  trips.  "1  feel  that  SFA  students  are  as 
good  as  any  other  university's  students. 
We  try  to  prepare  them  to  the  best  of  our 
ability,"  Dr.  Standley  said.

Dean  Janelle  C.  Ashley  has  been  with 
the  University  since  1965.  She  has  been 
dean  of  the  School  of  Business  for  four  of 
those  years.  Dr.  Ashley  believes  that  the 
most  important  aspect  of  her  job  is  service  J 
to  students.  As  dean  she  works  closely  I 
with  the  department  chairmen.  She  is  also 
responsible  for  planning  program  offerings 
for  the  school.  "I  feel  that  the  School  of 
Business  has  a  unique  responsibility  to  the 
business  community.  We  work  with  in- 
dividuals in  the  business  community,"  Dr. 
Ashley  said.  The  School  of  Business  works 
through  the  placement  office  and 
organizes  special  events  such  as  Career 
Day  and  guest  speakers.  "We  have  noticed 
an  increase  of  recruiters  returning  to  the 
University  who  want  SFA  students,"  Dr. 
Ashley  said.  She  attributes  this  increase  to 
the  well-rounded  student  who  has  a  good 
work  attitude.  "It  seems  that  SFA  attracts 
this  type  of  student.  We  just  add  to  the 
natural  ingredient  and  produce  a  good 
solid  person  both  in  work  and  personal 
life."

More  than  90  per  cent  of  the  students 
with  majors  in  the  School  of  Education  go 
into  teaching,  according  to  Dr.  Langston 
Kerr.  He  said  these  students  are  being 
prepared  to  work  with  computers  as 
public  school  teachers  because  of  two  new 
graduation  requirements.  First,  all 
students  seeking  their  teacher  certification 
must  take  Computer  Science  101.  Second, 
as  seniors  the  students  must  take  a  course 
in  educational  technology.  Dr.  Kerr  has 
been  dean  of  the  school  for  five  years.  The 
school  encompasses  the  departments  of 
agriculture,  counseling  and  special  educa- 
tional programs,  health  and  physical 
education,  home  economics  and  secon- 
dary and  elementary  education.  Because 
of  changes  in  the  teacher  education  pro- 
gram, Dr.  Kerr  says  he  expects  future 
teachers  from  SFA  to  be  better  equipped 
and  more  computer  literate.  Computer 
literacy  also  is  a  goal  among  faculty  in  the 
School  of  Education.

Dean  of  the  School 
of  Fine  Arts 


Lauren  Davis 


Dr.  Robert  G.  Sidnell 

The  major  change  in  the  School  of  Fine 
Arts  was  the  move  of  the  communication 
department  to  the  School  of  Applied  Arts 
and  Sciences,  Dr.  Robert  G.  Sidnell,  dean 
of  fine  arts,  said.  "In  positive  terms,  the 
Department  of  Communication  is  more  ap- 
propriate in  the  School  of  Applied  Arts  and 
Sciences  because  it's  more  of  an  applied 
art  than  a  fine  art,"  he  said.  Another  major 
change  for  the  school  was  the  new  fine 
arts  requirement  for  all  students  through 
which  the  arts  became  more  recognized  on 
campus.  Many  additions  and  programs  are 
in  the  planning  stages  in  the  school,  he 
said.  A  new  degree  program  in  music  was 
started,  and  a  degree  program  in  art  is  in 
the  planning  stages.  The  school  developed 
eight  goals  for  future  development,  in- 
cluding an  art  center,  an  Arts  on  Wheels 
program  and  adult  education  programs.  "If 
we  can  get  the  money  and  the  personnel  to 
implement  those  (programs)  we  can  make 
a  difference.  It  would  be  an  exciting  step 
forward  for  the  school,"  Dean  Sidnell  said.

Dr.  Kent  T.  Adoir 


"In  many  respects  I  think  we  have  the 
best  liberal  arts  program  on  campus,"  Dr. 
Kent  T.  Adair  said.  The  School  of  Forestry 
is  the  only  school  on  campus  that  is  not 
departmentalized.  It  is  the  only  school  that 
offers  a  doctoral  program.  Students  in  the 
forestry  program  experience  their 
coursework  through  outdoor  and  indoor 
laboratories  as  well  as  lectures.  The 
school's  emphasis  on  practical  knowledge 
is  reflected  in  the  fact  that  it  offers  more 
laboratory  sections  than  classroom  sec- 
tions. The  School  of  Forestry  is  one  of  only 
42  accredited  schools  in  the  nation.  Ac- 
cording to  Dr.  Adair,  the  school  is  probably 
the  heaviest  user  of  computers  on  campus 
besides  the  administration.  Most  of  the 
computers  in  the  school  have  been  pur- 
chased in  support  of  graduate  education, 
Dr.  Adair  said.  About  230  undergraduate 
males  and  150  undergraduate  females  are 
currently  enrolled  in  the  school's  forestry 
and  environmental  science  programs.  Dr. 
Adair  encourages  underclassmen  who  are 
undecided  about  their  majors  to  talk  to  a 
faculty  member  and  to  take  Introduction 
to  Forestry  or  Conservation  of  En- 
vironmental Resources  to  familiarize 
themselves  with  the  discipline  of  forestry. 


Deon  of  the  Graduate  School 


Dr.  Glen  T.  Clayton 


Meg  Jocks 


The  Graduate  School  has  applied  for 
new  master's  degree  programs  in  nursing 
and  music,  according  to  Dr.  Glen  T. 
Clayton,  dean  of  the  Graduate  School.  The 
school  is  also  expanding  graduate  offer- 
ings with  classes  in  criminal  justice  and 
social  work.  There  are  no  graduate  degree 
programs  in  those  areas  yet,  Dr.  Clayton 
said,  but  it  is  the  first  time  those  classes 
have  been  offered  to  graduate  students. 
Another  addition  to  the  Graduate  School  is 
Dr.  David  L.  Jeffrey,  the  associate  dean, 
who  works  full  time  in  the  school.  The  ad- 
dition of  Dr.  Jeffrey  allows  the  school  to 
work  more  carefully  with  the  faculty,  with 
research  efforts  and  admissions  to  the 
graduate  program  and  in  monitoring  thesis 
proposals,  Dr.  Clayton  said.  The  school 
has  added  a  cooperative  doctoral  program 
in  educational  curriculum  and  instruction 
with  Texas  ASM  that  allows  the  student  to 
take  21  hours  beyond  his  master's  degree.

Dean  of  the  School

Meg  Jocks 

Dr.  James  V.  Reese 


James  V.  Reese,  dean  of  the  School  of 
Liberal  Arts,  wants  SFA  to  become  an  in- 
formation center  for  anyone  wanting  to 
know  something  about  East  Texas.  "I 
think  we've  got  some  exceptionally 
talented  people  in  this  school,"  Dean 
Reese  said,  citing  expertise  in  areas  of  ar- 
chaeology, history,  census  material  and 
folklore  of  the  East  Texas  area.  He  also 
said  that  the  other  schools  on  campus 
were  greatly  knowledgeable  on  the  region. 
"There's  more  information,  more 
knowledge,  more  expertise  (on  East  Texas) 
here  than  anywhere  else  in  the  world.  Peo- 
ple think  you  have  to  go  to  A&M  or  OT  to 
find  it,"  he  said.  "I  think  there  are  an  enor- 
mous number  of  exciting  things  going  on 
on  campus  and  in  my  school  as  well."  He 
said  that  although  there  is  only  one  word 
processor  in  the  department  now,  he 
would  like  to  see  about  15  available  to 
students  in  the  language  lab  in  the  future. 


Dean  of  the  School 
of  Sciences  and  Mathematics 


Lauren  Davis 

Dr.  Horry  P.  Hoge 


Since  becoming  dean  of  the  School  of 
Sciences  and  Mathematics  in  the  fall  of 
1984,  Dr.  Harry  P.  Hoge  has  established  a 
computer  committee  and  worked  on  in- 
creasing the  amount  of  funding  received 
by  the  school  from  private  sources.  The 
computer  committee  was  established  to 
determine  the  state  of  computer  literacy  ; 
among  the  departmental  faculty  in  the 
school  and  to  obtain  hardware  and  soft- 
ware so  the  use  of  computers  can  be  ex- 
panded to  meet  the  growing  academic 
needs  of  the  school  as  the  faculty  prepares 
students  for  careers  in  a  technological 
society.  Dr.  Hoge  said  the  school  is  in  a 
growth  stage  of  becoming  more  literate  in 
computer.  Contrary  to  some  people,  he 
doesn't  feel  computers  are  dehumanizing. 
He  hopes  to  see  the  schools  linked  by  com- 
puter to  the  departments  and  to  the  cam- 
pus main  frame,  Central  Processing  Six.

Dr.  William  E.  Porter 


"I  have  an  extremely  varied  job.  I  have 
the  opportunity  to  work  with  all  types  of 
programs,  activities,  students,  faculty  and 
student  groups,"  Dr.  William  E.  Porter, 
dean  of  student  development,  said.  Dean 
Porter  is  responsible  for  all  out-of-class  ac- 
tivities that  involve  students.  These  ac- 
tivities include  CJC  Programs,  the  student 
legal  counsel,  the  Residence  Hall  Associa- 
tion, fraternities  and  sororities,  service 
organizations  and  departmental  clubs.  He 
is  also  responsible  for  university  policies, 
as  they  deal  with  students.  Dr.  Porter  feels 
the  biggest  misconception  about  his  posi- 
tion as  dean  of  student  development  is  the 
assumption  that  he  is  only  involved  with 
the  enforcement  of  disciplinary  measures. 
Although  that  is  an  important  part  of  his 
job,  he  believes  that  he  is  primarily  con- 
cerned with  the  positive  aspects  of  student 
life  such  as  leadership  and  student 
activities.

A  growing  student  body,  faculty  and

microcomputers  in  accounting  classes  are 
just  a  few  of  the  changes  which  have  oc- 
curred in  the  accounting  department  in  the

Graduates  from  the  administrative  ser-

the  "computerized  office  of  the  future," 
Dr.  Dillard  B.  Tinsley,  interim  department

educate  students  in  computerized  records

The  department  combines  several 
disciplines  that  serve  business  and  educa- 
tional organizations.

ministration.  The  department  offers 
minors  in  administrative  law,  petroleum 
land  management  and  business 
communication. 

"I  expect  opportunities  for  the  majors  in 
business  education  to  grow,  and  business 
education  is  a  popular  second  teaching 
field  for  education  majors  of  all  types,"  Dr. 
Tinsley  said.  "Business  education  provides 
flexibility  to  students  who  are  not  sure 
whether  they  wish  to  make  their  careers  in 
education  or  in  business."

Agriculture 


Department  prepares  future  farmers 


New  technology  is  being  developed  in 
many  areas  of  agriculture,  according  to  Dr. 
Leon  Young,  chairman  of  the  Department 
of  Agriculture.  New  management  systems 
for  producing  crops  and  livestock  result 
from  this  technology  and  are  incorporated 
into  the  department's  course  offerings. 

The  government  of  Pakistan  and  the 
(J.S.  Agency  for  International  Develop- 
ment have  sponsored  several  consulting 
trips  on  temperate  fruit  production  by  Dr. 
David  L.  Creech,  associate  professor  of 
agriculture. 

One  important  link  between  the  depart- 
ment and  the  community  is  the  Soils 
Testing  Lab  which  analyzes  over  5,000  soil 
samples  and  400  forage  samples  per  year 
for  East  Texas  farmers  and  ranchers.

"The  art  department  uses  some

The  study  of  art  prepares  students  for 
life  in  this  world,  whether  it  be 
"technological"  or  otherwise,  according  to 
Jon  D.  Wink,  chairman  of  the  Department 
of  Art.  He  believes  the  study  of  Art 
prepares  students  by  providing  the  oppor- 
tunity and  incentive  to  think  practically 
and  imaginatively. 

Although  the  department  is  not  heavily 
computerized,  there  is  interest  in  what 
electronic  technologies  can  do.  "We  are 
more  concerned  about  the  usefulness  of 


technology  than  we  are  concerned  about 
the  currency  of  a  particular  technology," 
Wink  said. 

Students  in  the  department  are  en- 
couraged and  even  required  to  develop 
their  abilities  to  solve  problems.  Wink  said, 
"We  help  them  (students)  develop  their 
values  and  ethics  so  that  they  can 
evaluate  and  commit  to  their  actions  in 
this  world.  Education  preserves 
humanity's  treasures  and  prepares  people 
for  change."

"The  acceptance  rate  for 
biology  students  into  profes-

Technology  is  becoming  more  and  more 
important  in  all  aspects  of  biology,  ac- 
cording to  Dr.  Charles  W.  Mims,  chairman 
of  the  Department  of  Biology. 

Dr.  Mims  believes  the  Department  of 
Biology  is  successfully  preparing  students 
for  the  modern  world.  The  acceptance 
rates  for  biology  students  into  professional 


programs  such  as  medicine  and  dentistry 
remain  high  and  graduates  are  actively 
recruited  by  graduate  schools  throughout 
the  state  and  region. 

Five  years  from  now  Dr.  Mims  believes 
the  department  will  still  have  a  strong  pro- 
gram with  more  and  more  students  major- 
ing in  biology.

The  department  has  a  long  record  of 
graduating  majors  who  have  gone  on  to 
get  doctorates  and  have  become  out- 
standing scientists  and  academicians.  "We 
intend  to  continue  this  tradition,"  Dr.

Modern  equipment  benefits  students 


The  Department  of  Communication  was 
moved  from  the  School  of  Fine  Arts  to  the 
School  of  Applied  Arts  and  Sciences  this 
year.  The  department  gained  both  a  new 
dean,  Dr.  James  O.  Standley,  and  a  new 
department  chairman,  Dr.  Heber  Taylor. 

Eight  video  display  terminals  were  in- 
stalled for  use  by  The  Pine  Log  staff  and 
other  communication  students  in  the 
Department  of  Communication.  According 
to  Dr.  Taylor,  this  hands-on  experience 
with  VDTs  will  help  students  succeed 
when  they  leave  the  university  and  enter  a 
highly  technological  world. 

"For  several  years,  communication 
students  have  had  access  to  a  campus 
radio  station  and  a  television  studio  as  a 
part  of  their  training  for  careers  in  broad- 
casting," Dr.  Taylor  said.  Television 
students  have  worked  with  remote 
cameras  and  recorders,  portable  color 
cameras  and  recorders  for  newsgathering, 
video  editing  facilities  and  a  color  TV 
studio.  "Academically  we  are  trying  to 
make  a  good  department  better,"  Dr. 
Taylor  said. 

The  communication  department  has  a 
number  of  faculty  members  with  unusual 
backgrounds,   skills  and   knowledge.  A

The  secretary  in  the  computer  science 
department  works  more  with  a  computer 
than  she  does  with  a  typewriter.  The  only 
thing  she  uses  a  typewriter  for  is  doing  forms 
and  envelopes,  Dr.  Craig  Wood,  chairman  of

In  addition  to  teaching  secretaries  to  use 
new  technology,  the  department  is  also  in- 
volved with  helping  local  businesses  and 
school-aged  children  become  more  familiar 
with  computers. 

The  computer  science  professors  offer  con- 
sulting services  to  businesses  which  are  in-

help  decide  what  kinds  of  programs  and 
equipment  the  businesses  could  use  to  their 
advantage.

"The  Department  of  Continuing  Educa-

"is  responsible  for  all  adult  activities  that 
are  non-credit." 

This  has  come  to  include  courses, 
seminars  and  workshops.  The  courses  in- 
clude an  introduction  to  microcomputers, 
food  services,  yoga,  defensive  driving  and 
basic  security  officer  training. 

A  seminar,  Piney  Woods  School  of 
Alcohol  Awareness,  and  various 
workshops  were  held. 

The  department  has  been  under  the 
directorship  of  Dr.  Hallman  since  the  fall  of 
1982.  Dr.  Hallman  coordinates  activities  in 


two  ways.  First  he  works  with  anyone  who 
wants  to  offer  a  course  and  second,  he 
creates  courses  that  he  sees  the  public 
showing  an  interest  in.

Justice  program  emphasizes  quality 


The  Department  of  Criminal  Justice  is 
changing  its  name  to  Justice  Administra- 
tion, effective  fall  of  1985.  "The  reason  for 
this  change  is  the  incorporation  of  the 
department  in  a  broader  sense,"  Dr.  John 
P.  Harlan,  chairman  of  the  Department  of 
Criminal  Justice,  said. 

The  criminal  justice  program  is  designed 
to  prepare  students  to  become  practi- 
tioners within  the  field  of  the  administra- 
tion of  justice.  "We  have  taken  the  fun- 
damentals of  different  curriculums  and 
now  have  four  curriculums,"  Dr.  Harlan 
said.  These  four  fields  include:  law  enforce- 
ment, corrections  (probation,  prison  and 
parole),  legal  assistant,  private  security 
and  juvenile  justice. 

The  program  seeks  to  provide  the 
analytical  tools  and  techniques  necessary 


for  deeper  insight  into  those  institutions 
and  processes  of  the  criminal  justice 
system.  "Our  thrust  is  on  quality."

Computers  help  analyze  problems 


"I  feel  that  we  are  preparing  students  to 
cope  with  the  technological  world  of 
business  and  industry  that  they  will  enter," 
Dr.  Charles  W.  Brown,  chairman  of  the 
Department  of  Economics  and  Finance, 
said. 

Students  are  exposed  to  computers  both 
through  a  required  course  and  through 
some  advanced  classes.  "We  acquaint  our 
students  with  the  latest  techniques  for 
analyzing   and   solving   problems,"  Dr. 


Brown  said. 

The  department  has  a  microcomputer 
terminal  connected  to  the  University  main- 
frame computer.  In  addition  to  computers, 
the  department  has  purchased  video 
equipment  which  will  be  in  operation  in  the 
near  future.  Five  years  from  now,  the 
department  will  be  making  more  use  of 
computers.  "Our  academic  standards  will 
continue  to  improve,"  Dr.  Brown  said.

Certification  changes  alter  program 


Dr.  Thomas  D.  Franks,  chairman  of  the 
Department  of  Elementary  Education,  said 
a  great  deal  of  time  was  devoted  in  the 
1984-85  school  year  to  revising  the  pro- 
gram leading  to  certification  to  teach  in 
Texas.  The  revision  followed  the  adoption 
of  new  certification  standards  by  the 
Texas  State  Board  of  Education  to  be  ef- 
fective in  the  fall  of  1985.  The  faculty  also 
prepared  for  a  reaccreditation  visit  by  a 
visiting  team  from  the  National  Council  for 
the  Accreditation  of  Teacher  Education. 

The  department  has  a  strong  reading 
specialization,  a  growing  bilingual  program 
and  a  widely  recognized  leadership  in

Departmental  goals  remain  constant 


"I  do  not  foresee  any  significant  changes 
in  the  academic  program  of  my  depart- 
ment within  the  next  five  years,"  Dr.  Roy 
E.  Cain,  department  chairman,  said.  "We 
will  continue  to  offer  majors  leading  to  a 
bachelor  of  arts  degree  and  master  of  arts 
degree,"  he  said. 

The  Department  of  English  and 
Philosophy  will  be  using  more  technology 
in  its  instruction,  Dr.  Cain  said,  but  its 
goals  in  teaching  the  English  language  and 
literature  and  philosophy  will  remain  the 
same. 

Some  members  of  the  department  are 
knowledgeable  in  music,  art,  history, 
science  and  other  areas,  according  to  Dr. 
Cain.  These  faculty  members  occasionally 
give  guest  lectures  for  their  colleagues  as 
do    faculty    members    with    areas  of 


specialization  in  literature,  linguistics  and 
rhetoric. 

The  Liberal  Arts  Building,  finished  in  the 
fall  of  1984,  has  two  spacious  auditoriums 
and  two  seminar  rooms,  which  are  useful 
in  teaching  large  undergraduate  classes 
and  smaller  graduate  classes.

Offerings  In  Bible 


Human  values  mesh  with  high-tech 

Offerings  in  Bible  prepares  students  for 
life  in  an  increasingly  computerized  world 
by  teaching  them  human  values,  the  Rev. 
Randy  Warren,  chairman  of  the  program, 
said. 

He  expects  the  program  to  expand  to  in- 
clude more  classes  and  more  teachers; 
meanwhile,  he  has  begun  using  a  personal 
computer  and  word  processor  to  help  with 
much  of  his  paperwork. 

Warren  uses  his  computer  to  make  up 
exams  and  keep  them  on  file.  "I  also  use 
the  computer  for  much  of  my  business 
correspondence,"  he  said. 

In  addition  to  using  the  computer  for 
personal  business,  Warren  instructs 
students  in  the  use  of  the  terminal  and  the 
word  processor. 


"One  might  say  that  in  the  midst 
of  a  changing  world,  the  Bible 
program  is  offering  a  meshing  of 
human  values  with  new 
technology/'

Sophisticated  equipment  required 


Courses  in  the  Department  of  Geology 
are  open  to  both  science  and  non-science 
majors.  The  graduate  and  undergraduate 
programs  in  the  future  will  become  pro- 
gressively more  rigorous  to  meet  the  needs 
dictated  by  competition  for  jobs  in  in- 
dustry and  research,  Dr.  Jerry  W.  Vincent, 
department  chairman,  said. 

The  department's  objective  is  to  help 
students  understand  the  methods  of 
science  and  the  fundamentals  of  earth 
science  as  it  relates  to  man  and  his 
dependence  on  physical  resources  of  the 
earth  such  as  minerals,  rocks,  fuels  and 
water. 

A  new  mineralogy  lab  and  a  Texas  In- 
struments Computer  are  helping  the  facul- 
ty prepare  students  for  geology  profes- 
sions. Dr.  Vincent  said  most  of  the  major 


core  courses  require  the  use  of 
sophisticated  analytical  equipment  rang- 
ing from  electron  microscopes  to  x-ray  dif- 
fusion units. 


''The  graduate  and 
undergraduate  programs  in  the

ly more  rigorous  to  meet  the

for  jobs  in  industry  and

HPE  purpose  relates  to  preparation 


The  Department  of  Health  and  Physical 
Education  utilizes  computers  in  both  the 
undergraduate  and  graduate  programs. 

"The  department  is  exposing  students 
to  some  computer  work.  All  students 
working  on  their  teaching  certificates  are 
required  to  take  at  least  one  computer 
course,"  Dr.  Carl  Ray  Kight,  chairman  of 
the  Department  of  Health  and  Physical 
Education,  said. 

The  primary  purposes  of  the  health  and 
physical  education  department  are  related 
to  the  preparation  of  health  educators, 
physical  educators,  dance  teachers  and 
the  development  of  total  fitness  and 
recreational  sports  skills  through  pro- 
grams of  fitness  and  lifetime  sports. 

The  HPE  faculty  members  have  a  skill 
or  knowledge  which  is  utilized  in  the  class 
or  through  special  programs  of  lectures. 
Faculty  members  possess  high  levels  of 
knowledge  in  their  skill  areas.  Faculty 
members  participate  in  tournaments,  act 
as  consultants  to  schools  and  agencies  in 
the  evaluation  process  and  conduct  ser- 
vice workshops  in  their  teaching  specialty 
areas.  "We  want  to  be  able  to  provide  a 
strong  academic  program  that  will  give  the 
basis  to  teaching,"  Dr.  Kight  said. 


The  department  helps  host  and  sponsor 
the  Special  Olympics  each  year  for  Region 
7  students.  Approximately  500  children 
participate  in  the  Special  Olympics  from 
16  counties.

History 


Department  stands  out  in  history 


The  study  of  history  provides  breadth 
and  depth  in  the  educational  process  and 
contributes  to  one's  ability  to  accept  new 
challenges  and  be  innovative  in  novel 
situations,  according  to  Dr.  Robert  Mathis, 
chairman  of  the  Department  of  History. 

In  our  increasingly  technological  world, 
the  need  for  historical  knowledge  has 
never  been  more  imperative,"  Dr.  Mathis 
said.  "The  pure  intellectual  pleasure  de- 
rived from  understanding  past  cultures 
and  civilizations  is  not  the  only  reason  for 


studying  history." 

The  history  department  has  a  faculty 
with  each  member  being  a  highly  compe- 
tent professional  with  a  special  area  of  ex- 
pertise. The  faculty  frequently  presents 
lectures  and  programs  to  civic  organiza- 
tions and  public  schools,  as  well  as  to 
local,  state,  regional  and  national  con- 
ferences. Five  members  of  the  department 
presented  scholarly  papers  to  historical 
meetings  outside  the  state  this  year.

floor  of  the  McGee  Business  Building  in  the 
spring  of  1984.  The  department  now  has 
adequate  space  for  faculty  offices  and 
work  areas  according  to  Dr.  Bobby  G. 
Bizzell,  chairman  of  the  Department  of 
Management  and  Marketing. 

The  department  has  two  microcom- 
puters and  one  terminal  which  is  tied  to 
the  University's  main  frame.  "Computer- 
related  projects  are  an  important  part  of 


several  quantitative  management  courses 
as  well  as  the  business  policy  and 
marketing  research  classes,"  Dr.  Bizzell 
said. 

Dr.  Bizzell  plans  to  improve  instruction 
by  recruiting  additional  qualified  faculty 
members  and  by  taking  advantage  of 
technological  innovations.  The  department 
wants  to  expand  course  offerings  so  that 
students  will  have  a  better  opportunity  to 
tailor  their  coursework  to  individual  career 
objectives.

students  wishing  to  pursue  a  career  in 
mathematics  or  in  statistics,  according  to 
Thomas  A.  Atchison,  chairman  of  the 
department. 

Dr.  Atchison  said  these  careers  include 
areas  in  industrial  and  applied 
mathematics  or  statistics,  teacher  prepara- 
tion and  preparation  to  enter  graduate 
school  in  a  mathematical  science. 


The  faculty  reviews  the  academic  cur- 
riculum regularly  and  interacts  with  per- 
sons in  industry  and  in  other  universities 
for  the  purpose  of  maintaining  a 
technologically  current  program. 

The  department  maintains  terminals 
which  interact  with  the  CP-6  computer

Military  Science 


Lauren  Davis 


Officer  preparation  aim  of  courses 


The  Department  of  Military  Science 
prepares  students  for  careers  as  officers  in 
the  Army.  Military  science  has  been  of- 
fered at  SFA  since  1968. 

Students  preparing  for  military  careers 
contract  with  the  federal  government  for  a 
minimum  of  three  years  of  service  upon 
graduation  from  college.  The  department 
also  offers  students  a  20-hour  minimum 
with  no  obligation  to  the  government. 

Eleven  courses  are  offered  in  military 
science  and  all  but  one  require  laboratory 
work.  Laboratory  classes  give  students  ex- 
perience in  rappelling,  orienteering,  land 
navigation,  first  aid  and  wilderness 
survival. 


Rappelling  is  the  ascent  or  descent  of  a 
vertical  mountain  or  surface  with  the  use 
of  ropes.  Orienteering  involves  a  race  be- 
tween two  points  determined  by  land 
navigations.  The  department  is  planning  to 
build  a  rappelling  tower  across  from  the 
SFA  Coliseum  on  University  Drive. 

Participation  in  the  Reserved  Officer's 
Training  Corps  (ROTC)  allows  qualified 
military  science  students  the  opportunity 
to  earn  a  commission  as  a  Second  Lieute- 
nant in  the  Regular  Army,  Army  Reserve 
or  Army  National  Guard  while  pursuing 
their  degrees.  Early  in  their  military 
science  coursework,  students  can  visit  the 
army  post  in  Polk,  Louisiana.

Modern  Languages 


Experienced  faculty  helps  students 


"Every  member  of  the  modern 
languages  department  has  studied  the 
language  he  or  she  teaches  in  the  country 
where  the  language  is  native,"  said  Dr. 
Bonnie  Todd,  interim  chairman  of  the 
Department  of  Modern  Languages. 

Languages  offered  in  the  department  are 
French,  German,  Spanish,  Italian,  Por- 
tuguese and  Latin.  Their  experience 
enables  the  faculty  to  help  students 
cultivate  an  appreciation  for  the  culture 
and  civilization  of  the  people  whose 
language  they  are  studying. 

According  to  Dr.  Todd,  all  students 


enrolled  in  the  department's  courses  take 
advantage  of  the  most  advanced 
technology  in  the  language  laboratory.  The 
laboratory  accommodates  64  students. 

The  department  has  a  television  and 
video  cassette  recorder  and  moved  into 
the  Liberal  Arts  Building  when  it  was  com- 
pleted. Dr.  Todd  said  the  extra  space  will 
be  needed  in  the  next  few  years  as  high 
school  students  will  be  required  to  take 
foreign  languages  as  a  result  of  a  bill 
passed  by  a  special  session  of  the 
legislature  during  the  summer  of  1984.

skills  as  well  as  involving  the  community 
in  music  projects. 

One  of  the  expansions  in  the  depart- 
ment is  the  introduction  of  electronic 
music  by  Dr.  Dan  J.  Beaty,  professor  of 
music.  "Electronic  music  is  created  by 
electronics  and  then  synthesized,"  Dr. 
Robert  W.  Miller,  music  department  chair- 


man, said.  "Music  is  produced  and  per- 
formed by  electronic  impulses  instead  of 
by  humans  playing  instruments." 

A  400-voice  choir  made  up  of  students, 
university  staff  and  community  members 
presented  "The  Messiah"  on  Dec.  6. 
Various  other  performances  for  and  with 
the  community  were  scheduled 
throughout  the  year.

Computers  have  also  benefited  the 
department.  Dr.  Beverlyanne  Robinson, 
professor  and  director  of  nursing,  says, 
"We  have  two  CRTs  (Cathode  Ray  Tubes) 
and  will  have  one  microcomputer."  The

simulations  in  the  classroom. 

In  addition  to  nursing  classes,  students 
train  outside  the  classroom.  "We  have 
community  projects  and  students  work  in 
community  clinical  settings.  We  also  pro- 
vide community  health  care  services."

Physics 


Research  takes  on  high-tech  look 


The  physics  department  conducts  a 
number  of  research  oriented  courses  utiliz- 
ing the  individualized  instruction  ap- 
proach. Upper  level  undergraduate 
students  have  the  capability  of  performing 
research  in  x-ray  diffraction,  infrared  spec- 
troscopy, low  temperature  physics,  elec- 
trospectroscopy  and  astronomy. 

The  program  for  physics  students  in- 
cludes not  only  sound  training  in  the  fun- 
damentals and  nature  of  physical  pro- 
cesses, but  also  extensive  knowledge  in 
the  use  of  macro-computers  and  micro- 
computer electronics,"  Dr.  Thomas  O. 
Callaway,  chairman  of  the  Department  of 
Physics,  said. 


The  physics  department  master's 
degree  program  requires  that  a  student 
participate  in  one  of  the  department's 
research  areas.  Each  area  utilized  the 
latest  microelectronic  techniques  in  the  ac- 
quisition analysis  of  data.

Psychology  enrollment  on  the  rise 


The  psychology  program  continues  to 
grow  with  the  Department  of  Psychology. 
The  department  has  over  280  majors  of 
which  50  are  graduate  students.  Fall  1984 
enrollment  in  all  psychology  courses  was 
close  to  2,000  students. 

Undergraduate  psychology  majors  learn 
how  to  design  experiments,  collect  data, 
analyze  data  and  write  up  results  in  certain 
key  required  courses. 

Psychology  graduate  students  pursuing 


a  master's  do  research,  use  and  even  build 
equipment  when  doing  a  thesis.  Those  in 
the  professional  program  may  use  biofeed- 
back equipment. 

"In  the  various  undergraduate  and 
graduate  courses,  students  are  exposed  to 
and  learn  the  latest  techniques  of  ex- 
perimental design  and  data  analysis,"  Dr. 
Heinz  A.  Gaylord,  chairman  of  the  Depart-

Teaching  strategies  to  computerize 


The  program  of  professional  secondary 
education  at  the  undergraduate  level  is 
based  on  a  critical  selection  of  the  things  a 
teacher  should  know  and  be  able  to  teach 
in  the  secondary  school. 

With  the  recent  passage  of  House  Bill  72 
faculty  members  are  assisting  school 
districts  in  teacher  observation  and  evalua- 
tion for  placement  on  the  career  ladder  and 
improving  teacher  performance  in

The  faculty  is  involved  in  preparing  for  the 
implementation  of  new  teacher  education 
standards  and  implications  of  House  Bill 
72  for  teacher  training. 

"The  faculty  is  completely  in- 
volved in  preparing  for  the  im- 
plementation of  new  teacher

instruction  on  how  to  use  the  computer  for 
instruction  in  the  classroom. 

"With  all  the  emphasis  today  on  acquisi-

Social  work  responds  to  technology 


Responding  to  a  high-tech  world  is 
creating  new  challenges  for  the  people- 
oriented  helping  professions.  "As  the 
world  becomes  more  high-tech,  it  is  the 
focus  of  our  profession  to  emphasize  high 
touch  so  that  the  technology  being 
developed  serves  the  needs  of  people 
rather  than  people  serving  the 
technology,"  Dr.  Kolar  said. 

The  Social  Work  Program  is  preparing 
students  for  dealing  with  an  increasingly 
technological  world  by  teaching  them  to 
have  "high  touch"  responses  to  the  "high 
tech"  world. 

Social  work  students  are  preparing  for 
careers  that  will  respond  to  the  needs  of 
people  in  the  highly  technological  society. 
"We  view  our  program  as  an  adjunct  not  a 
reaction,  to  high-tech  because  the  em- 


phasis in  our  program  is  on  the  people  who 
live  and  work  in  society,"  Dr.  Kolar  said, 
director  of  the  Social  Work  Program. 

Social  work  students  are  required  to 
take  a  course  in  computer  science  because 
working  knowledge  of  computers  is 
becoming  an  essential  skill  in  our  society.

Theatre

Profession  demands  dramatic  skill 


"Theatre  is  an  attitude  as  much  as  a 
specific  discipline  or  craft,"  Dr.  Thomas  K. 
Heino,  chairman  of  the  Department  of 
Theatre,  said.  He  believes  theatre  ex- 
perience provides  students  with  the  ability 
to  communicate  freely  and  effectively. 

The  Department  of  Theatre  is  currently 
involved  in  the  renovation  of  the  William 
M.  Turner  Fine  Arts  Auditorium  which  is 
scheduled  to  be  completed  by  August  of 
1985.  This  renovation  will  bring  the 
auditorium  up  to  current  safety  codes.  "It 
will  be  a  state  of  the  art  theatre,"  Dr.  Heino 
said.  The  new  auditorium  will  include 
many  functional  changes.  Some  of  the 
changes  include  an  experimental  theatre, 
acting  and  directing  laboratory,  a 
choreographic  rehearsal  room,  a  new  in- 
laid scene  and  costume  shop  facilities. 

Speaking  of  misconceptions  about  the 
theatre  department,  Dr.  Heino  said,  "It  is 
thought  that  the  peoples  in  the  School  of 
Fine  Arts  are  on  a  funsy  rollercoaster  ride. 
That  isn't  true.  Theatre  students  have  to 
work  twice  as  hard  to  get  anywhere  in 
their  profession." 

The  primary  responsibility  of  the  faculty 
to  students  of  the  theatre  department  is 
training.  "Our  goal  is  to  help  students  ar- 


rive at  a  point  of  professionalism,

Forestry  offers  doctorote 


The  School  of  Forestry  is  the  only 
school  at  SFA  that  offers  a  doctoral 
degree.  This  degree  is  designed  to  provide 
a  broad  education  in  forestry  at  the 
graduate  level. 

A  cooperative  doctoral  program  is  also 
available,  which  allows  students  to  take 
half  of  their  course  work  at  Stephen  F. 
Austin  and  half  at  Texas  ASM  University. 
"Students  are  offered  the  opportunity  to 
make  use  of  all  facilities  in  the  two  institu- 
tions in  the  program  leading  to  the  doc- 
torate degree  in  forestry,"  Dr.  Kent  T. 
Adair,  dean  of  the  School  of  Forestry,  said. 

Facilities  of  the  school  allow  research  in 
a  diversity  of  fields  of  study  in  forestry 
represented  by  the  school's  graduate  facili- 
ty; soils,  economics,  ecology,  mensura- 
tion, biometrics,  computer  sciences,  forest 
management,    wood    technology,  wood 


chemistry,  tree  physiology,  entomology, 
phytology,  silviculture,  dendrology,  forest 
fire  control,  photogrammetry  and  forest 
engineering. 

"Through  application  of  knowledge, 
forestry  enhances  as  well  as  maintains  and 
protects  forest  environments,"  Dr.  Adair 
said. 

Forest  land  near  the  campus  provides 
field  laboratories  for  graduate  study  and 
research.  There  are  four  national  forests, 
the  Stephen  F.  Austin  Experimental  For- 
est, industrial  properties,  an  Army  Corps  of 
Engineers  recreation  area  lease  and  the 
School  of  Forestry  Field  Station  which  is 
tract  under  long-term  lease. 

Various  laboratories  are  also  used  for 
graduate  instruction  and  research.  Re- 
search is  conducted  at  the  (J.S.D.A.  Forest 
Service  Station,  the  (J.S.D.A.  Soil  Con- 
servation Station,  the  Wildlife  and  Silvicul- 
ture Habitat  Laboratory,  the  Center  for  Ap-

A  professor's  interests:  spelunking  and  reptiles 


Dr.  Francis  E.  Abernethy,  pro- 
fessor of  English,  once  held  the 
Western  Hemisphere  record  for  a 
spelunking  drop  into  the  deepest 
sotano  in  the  Western  Hemisphere 
known  at  the  time. 

The  sport  of  spelunking  is  the 
study  of  caves  and  cave  life. 

"It's  just  like  mountain  climbing 
except  you're  going  down  instead  of 
coming  up,"  Dr.  Abernethy  said. 

Another  interest  of  Dr. 
Abernethy's  is  herpetology,  the 
study  of  reptiles.  Through  his  in- 
terest in  snakes,  he  became  involved 
with  the  study  of  caves. 

"It  was  during  the  summer  of  '58, 
when  two  others  and  I  were  making  a 
big  snake  collection  trip  around 
Sierra  Madre  Oriental,  in  Mexico.  We 
were  on  a  banana  plantation  when 
we  ran  across  a  big  pit,  otherwise 
known  as  a  sotano,"  Dr.  Abernethy 
said. 

"Having  little  experience  in  cave 
exploration,  we  tried  to  get  the  Texas 
Spelunkers  to  do  down  and  check  it 


out,  but  they  wouldn't  do  it.  So  we 
gathered  some  equipment  and  made 
the  360-foot  drop  ourselves." 

Dr.  Abernethy  and  the  rest  of  the 
crew  set  a  new  record  for  their  drop 
into  the  pit. 

Proper  clothing  is  essential,  Dr. 
Abernethy  said.  Include  headgear,  a 
narrow-brimmed  plastic  hat  of  the 
type  worn  by  construction  workers; 
footwear,  good  hiking  shoes  with  rub- 
ber or  composite  soles  for  traction 
and  a  moderately  loose  pair  of  one- 
piece  overalls. 

Dr.  Abernethy  said  spelunking  is 
not  designed  for  those  who  are 
careless.  At  any  time  you  may  find 
yourself  creeping  along  ledges, 
crawling  through  holes  or  leaping 
from  one  dropoff  to  another. 

"Around  Nacogdoches  one  may 
find  some  good  sand  caves,  but  I'm 
cautious  of  them,"  he  said.  "Usually, 
some  of  the  better  limestone  caves 
are  found  around  San  Marcus  or  in 
the  western  regions." 

Caves   are   not   always  visible; 


sometimes  they  are  hidden  by 
nature.  "A  lot  of  the  time  there  is 
brush  at  the  top  of  the  caves  where 
you  may  find  a  lot  of  snakes,"  he 
said.  "Snakes  like  to  accumulate 
above  the  openings  of  caves  and 
catch  bugs,  frogs  and  other  types  of 
animal  life  crawling  in  and  out." 

In  examining  caves  you  never 
know  what  you  might  find. 

Dr.  Abernethy  is  the  executive 
secretary  and  editor  fo  the  Texas 
Folklore  Society.  He  is  the  editor  of 
"Tales  from  the  Big  Thicket"  and 
"Built  in  Texas,  Legendary  Ladies  of 
Texas"  and  six  volumes  for  the 
Texas  Folklore  Society.  He  also 
plays  the  bass  fiddle  in  the  East 
Texas  String  Ensemble. 

Dr.  Abernethy  attended  SFA,  the 
University  of  Neuchatel  (Switzerland) 
and  Louisiana  State  University, 
where  he  received  a  doctorate  in 
Renaissance  literature.

the  Dominican  Republic  and  Uruguay. 

The  second  seminar,  held  in 
Montevideo,  Uruguay,  from  Oct.  8 
through  12,  stressed  university  cur- 
riculum preparation,  visually  impaired 
student  curriculu  and  bringing  students 
into  the  mainstream  of  sociey,  Kief  said. 

Kief  spoke  on  four  days  during  the 
course.  Her  lectures  covered  basic  ser- 
vices and  academic  instruction  for  the 
handicapped,  teaching  techniques  and 
technological  advances  for  the  visually 
handicapped. 

In  Uruguay  once  students  get  beyond 
the  sixth  grade,  no  significant  help  is 
available  for  them,  she  said. 

While  Uruguay  does  not  have  two 
voluntary  agencies  that  will  transcribe 
books  into  Braille  for  the  visually  im- 
paired, secondary  students  receive  no 
formal  aid,  such  as  the  itinerant 
teachers  in  the  Dominican  Republic 
who  instruct  the  visually  impaired  in 
secondary  schools,  Kief  said.  However, 


Uruguay  does  have  a  university  in 
Montevideo  that  admits  handicapped 
students. 

"The  Dominican  Republic  might  be  a 
little  bit  ahead  of  them  (Uruguay) 
because  of  industrial  contact  with  the 
United  States  and  Canada,"  Kief  said, 
comparing  the  two  countries. 

Economic  troubles  have  prevented 
Uruguay  from  purchasing  the  more 
highly  advanced  equipment  for  the 
handicapped. 

Word  processing  machines,  which 
are  common  at  institutes  in  the  United 
States,  are  limited  by  the  mainly 
agricultural  economy  to  only  two 
machines  at  the  headquarters  of  the 
Inter-American  Children's  Institutes  in 
Montevideo. 

Machines  such  as  the  Versa-Braille, 
which  costs  $7,000  in  the  United  States, 
are  too  highly  priced  for  the  people  of 
Uruguay.  The  Versa-Braille  machines 
are  replaced  by  eight  slate-and-stylus 
sets  bought  from  Brazil. 

Forty  people  participated  in  the 
seminar,  including  22  graduate  students 
and  I  teachers  of  the  blind.  The 
graduate  students  have  all  completed 


their  first  year  of  work  in  special  educa- 
tion and  must  have  previously  taught  in 
either  elementary  or  secondary 
education. 

Kief  is  currently  working  with  the 
Partners  of  America,  a  special  project 
that  matches  states  with  two  Latin 
American  countries.  She  said  she  hopes 
to  be  a  catalyst  for  the  giving  of  various 
types  of  aid  to  the  selected  foreign 
countries  and,  in  return,  the  states 
would  receive  Spanish  materials  for  the 
handicapped. 

Texas  has  been  paired  with  Peru  and 
Mexico  by  the  project.  The  Dominican 
Republic  has  been  paired  with  Michigan 
and  Uruguay  with  Minnesota.

Forestry  professor  travels  difficult  road  to  SFA 


SFA  was  a  college  of  about  1,600 
students  in  1957.  "It  was  just  a  little 
suitcase  college,"  recalls  Dr.  Victor 
Bilan,  professor  of  forestry. 

In  1957,  Dr.  Bilan  came  to  SFA  to 
become  the  first  research  faculty 
member  on  campus.  But  the  trip  was 
also  the  end  of  a  journey  Dr.  Bilan  had 
begun  18  years  earlier,  from  a  quarter  of 
the  way  around  the  world,  on  the 
windswept  plains  of  the  Polish  Ukraine. 

"I  was  17  years  old  and  attending  a 
government  supported  school,  which 
for  an  Ukrainian,  was  a  very  lucky  place 
to  be.  At  that  time,  only  about  400  out 
of  7  million  Ukrainian  people  were 
fortunate  enough  to  attend  a  strictly 
Ukrainian  high  school,"  Dr.  Bilan  said. 

But  it  was  also  1939  in  Europe.  The 
Nazi  storm  clouds  of  war  were  fast 
approaching  and  casting  an  omnious 
shadow  across  the  plains  of  neighboring 
Poland. 

But  when  Dr.  Bilan  was  told  it  was 
the  Russians  who  were  coming,  his 
optimism  faded  fast,  he  says.  After  the 
war,  Dr.  Bilan  went  to  Munich,  where  he 


enrolled  in  the  University  of  Munich.  He 
recalls  that  everything  was  war  torn.  "It 
was  very  difficult  to  study.  Everything 
was  destroyed  and  bombed  out,"  he 
said. 

Before  he  had  a  chance  to  complete 
high  school,  the  tides  of  war  once  again 
changed.  In  a  pre-emptive  attack, 
Hitler's  forces  struck  across  the 
Ukraine,  and  into  the  Soviet  Union.  Dr. 
Bilan  again,  was  a  witness  to  the 
changing  victor  and  the  vanquished. 
"The  end  of  the  war  found  me  in 
Germany;  a  homeless,  stateless, 
'displaced  person,'  where  I  was  persona 
non  grata  in  a  country  destroyed  by  the 
war  and  crowded  with  its  own 
refugees,"  he  said. 

In  1950,  Dr.  Bilan  was  accepted, 
through  sponsorship,  as  an  immigrant 
to  the  United  States.  After  arriving,  he 
stayed  with  a  family  of  friends  and  got  a 
job  making  TV  cabinets  for  50  cents  an 
hour.  But  Dr.  Bilan  soon  started 
searching  for  a  school  of  forestry  to 
continue  his  studies.  "They  never  heard 
of  a  school  of  forestry  in  Newark,  N.J.," 


he  says.  But  they  had  heard  of  Duke 
University,  and  in  1952  Duke  not  only 
accepted  Dr.  Bilan,  but  gave  him  a  five 
year  scholarship. 

With  only  one  year  of  an  evening 
English  course  behind  him,  class  was 
sometime  very  tough  on  him,  he  says. 
"One  time  the  students  came  to  class 
and  were  acting  excited  about 
something.  I  reached  over  and  asked 
the  guy  sitting  next  to  me  what  was 
going  on.  He  said, 'Ah,  we  got  a  quiz 
today.'  I  said,  'No  kidding.  What's  a 
quiz?'" 

After  completing  his  master's  degree, 
he  went  on  to  earn  a  doctorate  at  Duke, 
where  he  completed  his  work  in  1956.  In 
fall  1957,  Dr.  Bilan  received  a  letter 
asking  him  to  come  to  SFA  to  do 
research.  "I  didn't  know  Texas  had  any 
forest,"  he  says.

5  spring  graduates  achieved  4.0 


By  Cathy  Dudley 

What  do  a  business  major,  an  accoun- 
ting major,  a  biology  major  and  two 
education  majors  have  in  common? 
During  the  May,  1984,  commencement 
exercises  these  five  students  were 
recognized  for  setting  a  record  in 
academic  achievement  at  SFA. 

Carol  Adams,  Annette  Avitts, 
Michaelyn  Greene,  Kathryn  Massey  and 
Carolyn  Morley  graduated  summa  cum 
laude.  They  achieved  something  many 
students  would  deem  impossible.  They 
maintained  a  4.0  GPA  for  every 
semester  of  their  coursework  at  SFA. 

Until  May  of  1984  the  highest 
number  of  undergraduate  students 
graduating  summa  cum  laude  in  one 
semester  from  the  university  was  three 
in  December  of  1983. 

Carol  Adams,  22,  graduated  from 
SFA  with  a  degree  in  business.  She  had 
transferred  here  from  Texas  Christian 
University  after  discovering  SFA  while 
home  from  TCCJ  for  the  summer.  Her 
family  had  moved  from  Piano  to 
Nacogdoches. 

Adams  says  she  always  liked  school 
and  never  considered  maintaining  a  4.0 
to  be  a  goal.  Like  most  seniors  during 
their  last  semester,  she  confessed,  "I've 
had  senioritis  pretty  bad."  Adams  said 
she  believes  her  high  GPA  helped  her  to 
get  job.  She  is  now  a  distribution  depart- 
ment analyst  for  Dow  Chemical  Co.  in 
Freeport. 

A  22-year-old  biology  major  from 
Houston,  Annette  Avitts,  got  an 
associate  degree  in  chemistry  from  San 
Jacinto  College  before  coming  to  SFA. 
Because  she  enjoys  the  sciences,  Avitts 
decided  to  pursue  a  degree  in  medicine. 

She  minored  in  psychology  and  her 
interest  in  this  area  may  lead  her  into 
psychiatry,  she  said.  Neurology  is 
another  possibility  she  is  considering.  "I 
a  interested  in  the  brain."  Avitts  applied 
to  seven  Texas  medical  schools.  Her 
achievement  at  SFA  is  interesting 
because  she  did  not  really  want  to  at- 
tend college.  She  decided  to  go  to 
school  when  she  was  awarded  an  educa- 
tion scholarship  to  teach. 

When  asked  how  she  kept  a  4.0  GPA, 


Michaelyn  Greene  said,  "By  the  time  I 
got  to  the  end,  1  didn't  want  to  mess  it 
up."  Greene,  21,  attended  SFA  for  three 
years  and  majored  in  accounting.  She 
began  attending  college  while  still  in 
high  school.  At  the  same  time  she  was 
working  as  a  bookkeeper  for  the  East 
Texas  Canning  Co.  Greene  attended 
high  school  in  the  morning,  worked  in 
the  afternoon  and  went  to  college  at 
night.  She  says,  "It  was  like  living  in 
three  different  worlds." 

Always  a  high  achiever,  Greene  was 
salutatorian  when  she  graduated  from 
Nacogdoches  High  School.  However, 
studying  was  not  always  easy  for  her.  "I 
worked  for  it  (a  4.0)."  Greene,  who  says 
she  never  questioned  her  major,  works 
for  Deloitte  Haskins  and  Sells,  a  CPA 
firm  in  Dallas. 

Kathryn  Massey,  30,  said  she  felt  like 
she  had  to  set  an  example  because  she 
was  older  than  the  other  students.  She 
attended  Ouachita  Baptist  University  in 
Arkansas  in  1971  and  married  during 
her  freshman  year.  She  later  attended 
the  University  of  Central  Arkansas. 

Her  husband,  Conway,  is  the  Athletic 
Director  and  a  coach  in  San  Augustine. 
She  says  he  made  "straight  A's"  in  col- 
lege. "It  was  sort  of  a  challenge  to  see  if 
I  could  too."  Massey  majored  in  elemen- 
tary education.  She  and  her  husband 


moved  to  Texas  with  their  daughter 
Beth,  because  her  husband  wanted  tfl 
get  into  Texas  sports.  Massey  receiveJ 
the  Hilda  Barfield  Outstanding  Elemer; 
tary  Education  Major  Graduate  AwarCj 
"It  would  be  neat  if  everyone  could  wai[ 
until  they  are  30  to  go  to  college,"  shd 
said. 

Despite  her  experience  in  working 
with  children  as  owner  of  Tanglewooi 
Early  Learning  Center  in  Nacogdoches 
Carolyn  Morley  felt  it  was  importar 
that  she  get  a  degree  in  educatior 
Morley,  40,  started  back  to  school  i 
1979  and  was  certified  under  the  Chil 

Development  Associate  Program. 

She  also  got  her  kindergarten  e 
dorsement  without  a  bachelor's  degre* 
Carolyn  is  married  to  Dr.  Max  ll 
Morley,  associate  professor  of  music  ; 
SFA.  The  Morley's  have  two  son; 
David,  10,  and  Paul,  who  is  16. 

Although  going  to  school  was  hard  c 

her   family   sometimes   because  sr. 

often  worked  10  hours  a  day  too,  she  ( 

glad  to  have  her  bachelor's  degree.  Sr1 

says  she  now  has  more  knowledge  1 
'  i 
work  with  kids  and  parents.  Keeping 

4.0  became  personal  goal  for  Mode 

but  she  is  not  finished  yet.  After 

year's  break,  she  plans  to  begin  workii 

toward  a  master's  degree.

Who's  Who  Among  Americon 
Universities  ond  Colleges 


Fifty-five  SFA  students  were  included  in  the 
1984-85  national  listing  of  Who's  Who  Among 
Students  in  American  Universities  and  Colleges. 
The  students  were  chosen  on  the  basis  of  academic 
achievement,  service  to  the  community,  leadership 
in  extracurricular  activities  and  potential  for  con- 
tinued success. 

Ernestine  Henry,  associate  dean  for  student 
development,  said  selection  for  Who's  Who  is  bas- 
ed on  the  university's  enrollment  and  that  the  na- 
tional organization  limits  schools  to  a  quota.  The 
number  selected  for  the  1984-85  school  year  was 
larger  than  for  any  year  in  the  past. 


The  grade-point  average  required  for  nomination 
to  the  national  organization  is  2.7  and  students 
must  be  junior  level  or  higher  to  qualify. 

A  10-member  committee  of  faculty,  ad- 
ministrators and  students  selected  SFA's  represen- 
tatives for  the  national  Who's  Who  publication. 
Dean  Henry  said  that  leadership  qualities  and  ex- 
tracurricular involvement  are  as  important  to  a  stu- 
dent's selection  as  his  GPA. 

Who's  Who  Among  Students  in  American 
Universities  and  Colleges  has  recognized  individual 
academic  excellence  of  college  students  since 
1934. 


"One  of  the  most  valuable  col-

Although  music  is  one  of  his 
main  interests,  Benny  Hengy 
says  even  as  a  freshman  he 
knew  he  wanted  to  enter  the 
pre-medical  curriculum  at  SFA.  Benny, 
whose  major  is  biology  with  a  chemistry 
minor,  had  also  considered  majoring  in 
business. 

The  educational  decision  he  now 
faces  is  whether  to  study  pediatrics  or 
surgery.  He  hopes  to  be  accepted  at 
Texas  A  &  M  or  Texas  Tech  and  enter 
medical  school  in  the  fall. 

Benny  says  his  decision  to  become  a 
doctor  was  confirmed  when  he  worked 
as  an  intern  in  surgical  pathology  and 
histology  at  Parkland  Hospital  in  Dallas 
during  the  past  two  summers.  "It  was 
really  good  because  the  residents  let  me 
look  over  their  shoulders,"  he  said. 

Benny  has  played  the  alto  saxophone 
in  the  Lumberjack  Marching  Band  for 
four  years  and  has  served  as  a  drum 
major  for  three  years.  He  plays  the 
tenor  saxophone  in  the  Symphonic 
Band.  The  piano  and  guitar  are  other  in- 
struments he  enjoys  playing. 

As  a  drum  major,  a  job  he  says 
should  be  called  field  commmander, 
Benny  as  led  the  marching  band 
through  three  years  of  performances  on 
the  field.  He  says  he  has  really  enjoyed 
it  since  the  unexpected  so  often  hap- 
pens while  performing  and  because 
humor  is  often  shared  on  the  field.  He 
says,  "It's  hard  to  direct  and  laugh  at 
the  same  time."

to  stay  at  SFA.  He  says  he  chose  to  at- 
tend SFA  because  he  knew  he  would  be 
paying  for  about  half  his  education. 

Benny  has  been  on  the  dean's  list  and 
president's  list  and  will  graduate  with  a 
3.8  GPA.  He  is  a  member  of  Kappa  Kap- 
pa Psi,  honorary  band  fraternity,  the 
Biology  Club  and  the  Preprofessional 
Club. 

The  Irving  senior  was  chosen  for 


Who's  Who  Among  American  Universi- 
ty and  College  Students,  is  a  member  of 


Benny  Hengy 


Alpha  Chi,  academic  honor  society, 
Beta  Beta  Beta  and  Gamma  Sigma  Ep- 
silon,  respectively,  the  biology  and 
chemistry  honor  societies.  Benny  is  a 
member  of  The  Group  as  is  Miss  SFA. 
Although  class  assignments,  organi- 


zations and  band  have  kept  Benny 
busy,  he  has  managed  to  keep  two 
other  interests  alive:  sports  and  movies. 
He  says,  "I  love  to  go  see  movies."  Grin- 
ning he  adds,  "If  I  can  get  (together 
with)  somebody  who  plays  Frisbee 
good,  I  can  play  four  hours  straight." 
When  he  graduates  this  spring,  Benny 
will  carry  with  him  a  reputation  based 
not  only  on  his  academic  excellence  but 
also  on  his  personal  contributions  to 
SFA  organizations.

you  say,  'You  can't  do  that,' 
I  say,  'Hide  and  watch,'  " 
Shari  Dooley  said.  She  add- 
ed, "I'm  slow  to  change,  but  when  I 
make  a  radical  decision  I  stick  with  it." 

Shari  has  attended  SFA  for  four 
years.  She  will  graduate  this  spring  with

high  school  in  Dallas  which  is  near  her 
hometown,  DeSoto. 

Before  deciding  to  come  to  SFA, 
Shari  talked  with  the  director  of  admis- 
sions. She  says  he  told  her  about  the 
Residence  Hall  Association  and  at  that 
time  she  thought  she  would  like  to  be  in- 
volved in  it.  "I  dreamed  maybe  one  day 
I  would  be  president  of  RHA,"  Shari 
said.  Her  dream  came  true.  "I've  had  a 
lot  of  memorable  experiences.  As  a 
whole,   RHA  and   the  residence  hall

SFA  offers  equal  opportunity 


by  Cathy  Dudley  and 
Patty  Doak 

A  special  commitment  to  making 
classes,  programs  and  activities  accessible 
to  handicapped  students  has  been  made  at 
SFA,  according  to  a  report  issued  by  the 
federal  Office  for  Civil  Rights. 

The  University  was  inspected  April  9 
through  11  by  Ms.  Linda  Morse,  regional 
auditor  for  the  Office  of  Civil  Rights,  U.S. 
Department  of  Education.  Morse  toured 
the  campus  with  Dr.  Richard  Voigtel,  direc- 
tor of  Affirmative  Action,  to  determine  the 
degree  to  which  SFA  was  complying  with 
Section  504  of  the  Rehabilitation  Act  of 
1973.  The  purpose  of  Section  504  is  to  en- 
sure the  civil  rights  of  equal  educational 
opportunity  for  handicapped  persons. 

The  number  of  handicapped  students  at- 
tending the  University  has  risen 
dramatically  within  the  last  several  years. 
Approximately  200  were  enrolled  for  the 
Fall  Semester  and  the  number  of 
quadriplegics  enrolled  had  doubled.  Help- 
ing the  Handicapped  Student:  A  Faculty 
Guide,  a  pamphlet  written  by  Dr.  Dale  E. 
Fish,  coordinator  of  handicapped  services, 
lists  the  following  handicaps  which 
students  may  possess:  hearing  impair- 
ment, non-ambulatory  disability,  blindness 
or  visual  impairment,  cerebral  palsy, 
epilepsy  and  dyslexia. 

Dr.  Fish  said  most  of  these  handicapped 
students  choose  SFA  because  of  its  ac- 
cessibility for  the  disabled  and  the  friendly, 
helpful  attitude  of  its  administrators,  facul- 
ty and  students.  Non-ambulatory  students 
are  wheelchair  bound  paraplegics  and 
quadriplegics.  Paraplegia  is  paralysis  of 
the  lower  portion  of  the  body  including 
both  legs  while  quadriplegia  involves 
paralysis  of  upper  and  lower  portions  of 
the  body.  Cerebral  palsy  results  from  brain 
damage  which  need  not  affect  the  intellec- 
tual abilities  but  does  affect  movement. 
Epilepsy,  a  disorder  of  the  central  nervous 
system,  causes  seizures  which  are  usually 
controlled  by  medication.  Dyslexia  is  a 
learning  disability  which  involves  an  in- 
ability to  read.  The  cause  of  dyslexia  is  not 
fully  understood. 

To  accommodate  handicapped  students 
many  physical  changes  have  been  made 
and  are  planned  both  inside  and  outside 
buildings  on  campus.  These  include  in- 
stallation of  elevators,  construction  and 
redesign  of  internal  and  external  perma- 
nent ramps,  redesign  of  laboratory  tables, 


installation  of  chair  lifts,  widening  of  door- 
ways, curb  cuts,  doors  with  electronic 
openers  and  graded  sidewalks. 

The  spring  inspection  at  SFA  was  sum- 
marized in  a  statement  of  findings  sent  to 
Dr.  Voigtel.  According  to  this  statement, 
many  renovations  and  alterations  at  SFA 
took  place  before  the  1977  required  date 
so  disabled  persons  have  been  here  prior  to 
the  federal  regulation  requiring  universities 
to  make  their  campuses  and  programs  ac- 
cessible. President  William  R.  Johnson  ap- 
proved a  $50,000  budget  in  1978  and  1979 
to  provide  for  physical  improvements  to 
make  the  campus  as  barrier-free  as 
possible. 

No  academic  buildings  at  SFA  are  inac- 
cessible to  disabled  students.  Both  the 
University  Center  and  University  Health 
Center  are  accessible  to  wheelchair  bound 
students.  Long  ramps  surround  the  foot- 
ball stadium  allowing  persons  in 
wheelchairs  to  participate  as  spectators  at 
football  games  and  other  events.  Installa- 
tion of  elevators  or  chairlifts  is  planned  for 
the  Griffith  Fine  Arts  Building,  Home 
Economics  Building,  Music  Building  and 
Birdwell  Building.  The  Ralph  W.  Steen 
Library  has  three  exterior  concrete  ramps, 
elevators  with  braille  markings  on  floors 
and  all  buttons  within  them,  door  buzzers 
and  automatic  door  openers. 

Handicapped  students  obtain  financial 
assistance  and  counseling  through  the 
Texas  Rehabilitation  Commission  officed 
in  the  Birdwell  Building.  Dr.  Fish  and  pro- 


fessors in  the  Department  of  Counseling 
and  Special  Educational  Programs  provide 
one-to-one  counseling  for  special  services 
such  as  notetakers,  interpreters,  tutors, 
housing  arrangements  and  caregiver 
services. 

The  statement  of  findings  cited  SFA  as 
one  of  few  schools  in  Texas  that  actively 
recruit  severely  disabled  students.  Many 
handicapped  students  transfer  to  SFA 
from  Victoria  Junior  College.  SFA  is  the 
only  school  in  Texas  which  offers 
postsecondary  education  for  totally  deaf 
students.  Other  changes  made  on  campus 
which  benefit  the  handicapped  are 
changes  in  testing  methods,  assignment  of 
clases  to  an  accessible  floor  or  room,  waiv- 
ing of  certain  degree  requirements  like 
physical  education  and  providing 
assistance  with  registration  and  in  the 
library. 

School  personnel  who  have  been  active 
ly  involved  in  accommodating  handicap- 
ped students  include  Pete  Smith,  director 
of  housing,  Ray  Fenton  of  the  Texas 
Rehabilitation  Commission  and  Dr.  Jack 
Nelson,  director  of  auxiliary  services.  Ac- 
cording to  Dr.  Fish,  Texas  has  a  history  of 
concern  for  the  handicapped.  "It  is  one  of 
the  stronger  sites  in  the  nations  as  far  as 
.  .  .  state  vocational  rehabilitation 
(programs),"  he  said.  SFA  is  helping  to 
provide  equal  educational  opportunity  for 
all  who  desire  it.  In  doing  so,  better  oppor- 
tunities are  being  created  for  handicapped 
and  nonhandicapped  students  alike.

Madge  Stallings  as  she  appeared  in 
the  1932  Stonefort  yearbook  during 
her  sophomore  year;  the  Rusk 
Building  during  the  1940s. 


Stallings  leaves  SFA 
after  50  years 

SFA  lost  a  familiar  personality  in 
August  when  Madge  Stallings  retired  as 
director  of  the  Stenographic  Bureau, 
now  called  SFA  Printing  Services. 

Mrs.  Stallings  marked  1984  as  her 
50th  year  as  an  employee  of  the  univer- 
sity. However,  she  has  been  involved 
with  SFA  more  than  50  years.  She  was 
a  freshman  business  major  here  in 
1930. 

After  graduating  from  SFA  in  1933, 
Mrs.  Stallings  left  Nacogdoches  for  a 
while,  then  returned  to  teach  in  the 
business  department.  The  school  was 
called  Stephen  F.  Austin  State 
Teacher's  college  then.  Besides 
teaching,  she  kept  the  minutes  for  com- 
mittee meetings  in  the  various  depart- 
ments on  campus.  Three  buildings  com- 
prised the  university  in  those  days:  the 
Rusk  Building,  the  Austin  Building  and 
Bateman  Gymnasium. 

In  1941  Mrs.  Stallings  became  direc- 
tor of  the  new  Stenographic  Bureau. 
She  was  secretary  to  the  faculty  and 
along  with  some  students  did  much  of 
the  typing  for  the  faculty. 

Mrs.  Stallings  remembers 
Nacogdoches,  circa  1930,  as  "small 
enough  that  you  knew  everybody  in 
town."  She  estimates  that  SFA  enroll- 
ment was  about  500  when  she  was  a 
student  here. 

Why  did  Mrs.  Stallings  never  move 
away  from  Nacogdoches?  As  she  said, 
"This  is  home."  She  met  her  husband, 
Jim,  here.  They  married  in  1936. 

Mrs.  Stallings  is  modest  about  her 
work  at  the  University  but  says  of  her 
70  years  of  life:  'I've  passed  that  point 
where  you  go  bragging  about  it  (your 
age)." 


Marc  Morrison 


A  wealth  of  knowledge  about  SFA 
can  be  gained  as  Mrs.  Stallings  relates 
changes  on  campus  over  the  years. 
Most  students  didn't  have  cars  and  few 
had  much  money  in  the  1930s,  Mrs. 
Stallings  said. 

The  school  had  no  college  center  so 
many  activities  were  held  in  homes  or 
at  the  country  club.  The  Austin 
Building  had  a  social  room  where  the 
fiscal  office  is  today,  but  according  to 
Mrs.  Stallings,  social  activities  were 
closely  monitored  by  the  dean  of 
women,  whose  office  opened  into  the 
social  room. 

Mrs.  Stallings  says  she  enjoyed  her 
years  at  SFA  because  she  had  "nice 
people  to  work  with  and  nice  people  to 
work  for."  No  doubt,  many  people  feel 
the  same  way  about  her.

Washing  clothes  -  more  than  a  weekly  chore 


by  Cathy  Dudley 

One  of  the  least  favorite  activities  all 
college  students  face  is  washing  a 
week's  accumulation  of  dirty  clothes. 
Rachel  Dement,  a  native  of 
Nacogdoches,  has  been  washing 
clothes  for  SFA  students  for  22  years 
and  hasn't  grown  tired  of  it  yet. 

"I  like  it  (washing  clothes).  I  feel  like 
I'm  being  useful  to  people.  I  like  young 
people,"  she  said. 

Mrs.  Dement,  who  prefers  to  be 
called  Rachel,  began  doing  laundry  for  a 
living  in  November  1962,  at  the  Quick 
Clean  Center  that  was  located  beside 
Okay  Food  Store  on  Raguet  Street. 

The  center  was  replaced  by  a  game 
room  and  Rachel  set  up  a  smaller  laun- 
dry service  in  a  portable  building  out- 
side her  mobile  home  on  Melrose  Road. 

Her  first  SFA  customers  were 
members  of  the  Lumberjack  football 
team.  She  soon  began  washing  for 
Theta  Chi  fraternity  and  then  for  all  the 
fraternities. 

Rachel  washed  for  25  to  50  people  a 
day,  five  days  a  week  at  the  Quick 
Clean  Center.  Since  starting  her  laundry 
service  at  her  home  she  says  she 
washes  and  dries  clothes  for  about  20  to 
60  people  a  week.  The  idea  of  washing 
that  many  clothes  to  make  a  living 
would  not  inspire  most  people. 

However,  Rachel  sincerely  enjoys  it. 
As  she  said,  "When  you  like  what 
you're  doing,  you  don't  really  get  tired 
of  doing  it.  The  more  kids  I  see  and  the 
more  dirty  clothes  they  bring,  the  hap- 
pier I  am." 

Besides  earning  her  a  living,  the  laun- 
dry service  fulfills  some  personal  needs. 
"College  kids,"  she  said,  "are  my 
therapy.  I  tell  them  my  problems  and 
they  tell  me  their  problems." 

"They  are  more  than  customers  to 
me.  They're  like  family.  Does  that 
sound  strange?"  Rachel  asked.  Because 
she  tries  to  treat  all  her  customers  alike, 
she  has  formed  some  special  friend- 
ships over  the  years. 

One  student  used  to  come  in  the 
Quick  Clean  Center  and  do  his  own 
clothes.  He  never  spoke  to  her.  She 
asked  his  friends  what  he  had  against 
her,  but  they  didn't  know. 

Rachel  began  waving  to  him  from  her 
car  every  time  she  saw  him  on  North 
Street  and  made  a  point  of  speaking  to 
him  when  he  came  in  the  laundry. 

She  told  one  of  his  friends,  "I'm  going 


to  make  an  enemy  or  a  friend  of  him." 
Her  perseverance  paid  off.  Today  he 
calls  her  his  "second  mom." 

There  are  numerous  college  students 
who  see  Rachel  as  a  second  mom,  a 
sister  or  a  friend.  She  says  she  has 
given  students  advice  on  everything 
from  squabbles  with  parents  and 
girlfriends  to  relationships  with 
professors. 

She  said,  "Some  people  say  college 
students  are  bad  but  I  haven't  found  it 
to  be  true." 

Rachel's  optimism  about  people  is 
evident  in  her  statement:  "I  look  for  the 
best  in  them.  No  matter  who  you  deal 
with,  if  you  remind  them  of  their  good 
points,  they'll  work  on  their  bad  ones." 

Sometimes  counseling  and  advising 
keep  her  from  working,  but  Rachel  says 
this  doesn't  bother  her.  She  encourages 
students  to  do  what  makes  them  happy 
—  even  if  a  decision  causes  conflict 
with  their  parents. 

A  student  whom  she  still  hears  from 
wanted  to  become  a  highway 
patrolman,  but  his  family  wanted  him  to 
attend  SFA  and  enter  the  family 
business.  She  says,  "I  didn't  want  to  go 
against  his  parents'  wishes,  but  I  en- 
couraged him  to  be  his  own  person." 

The  student  became  a  patrolman  and 
still  enjoys  it.  Rachel  believes  parents 
often  misunderstand  their  children.  "I 
know,  I  have  boys  of  my  own,"  she 
said. 

Rachel  has  always  charged  her 
customers  for  the  cost  of  washing  and 
drying,  plus,  as  she  says,  "whatever  it's 
worth  to  them  as  a  tip."  All  her 
customers  get  free  hangers  and  a  great 
big  smile. 

She  said,  "If  they've  got  the  money  to 
pay  that  week,  they  pay,  and  if  they 
don't,  they  charge  it." 

One  of  the  greatest  compliments  she 
gets  every  year  is  an  invitation  to  the 
Parents'  Day  activities  at  the  Theta  Chi 
house.  Some  of  the  parents  are  very 
eager  to  meet  her.  "They  say,  'I'd  like  to 
know  who  Rachel  is.  All  I  ever  hear  is 
Rachel,  Rachel,  Rachel,'"  she  said, 
smiling. 

Sitting  in  her  recliner  in  her  comfort- 
able mobile  home,  Rachel  said,  "Can 
you  imagine  how  many  kids  I've 
washed  clothes  for?"  She  still  gets 
cards  and  gifts  from  former  SFA 
students  on  holidays.  Alumni  often  call 


her  and  drop  by  to  see  her  when  they 
come  to  Nacogdoches  for  Homecoming. 

When  the  Quick  Clean  Center  closed, 
Rachel  eventually  equipped  the  port- 
able building  with  two  washers  and  two 
dryers. 

She  now  works  as  a  kitchen  assistant 
in  the  Early  Childhood  Laboratory  from 
8  a.m.  to  2  p.m.  Monday  through  Friday 
and  washes  students'  clothes  in  the 
afternoon.  She  had  hoped  to  work  close 
to  the  University  again  and  now  she  is. 

Rachel  said,  "By  trying  to  treat  peo- 
ple as  good  as  1  can,  I  have  gotten  the 
same  in  return.  'Bread  cast  upon  the 
waters  never  comes  back  void.'  "  ^>

"The  credibility  of  The  Pine  Log  is  at 
its  all-time  highest,"  editor  Jeff  Prince 
said  in  September.  "There  are  always 
mistakes,  but  it's  better  than  it  used  to 
be." 

The  Pine  Log  really  changed  faces  in 
the  fall  when  the  front  page  layout  was 
modernized.  Prince  was  interested  at 
first  in  changing  the  name  of  the 
newspaper  to  SFA  Today  but  he  says, 
"It  would  have  been  such  a  hassle  and 
upset  to  so  many  people  that  it  wasn't 
worth  it." 

SFA  has  had  a  student  newspaper 
since  the  college  was  founded.  Of 
course,  the  subsequent  years  have  seen 
many  changes  in  journalism.  However, 
Prince  says  the  visual  changes  in  The 
Pine  Log  were  made  hoping  that 
students  would  read  the  stories  and  ap- 
preciate them  more.  He  emphasized  the 
importance  of  quality  writing  and 
research  of  stories. 

Of  all  the  people  in  the  journalism 
curriculum  at  SFA,  a  huge  majority 
don't  work  on  the  paper.  It  isn't  a  good 
idea  to  enter  the  profession  without  the 
experience  of  working  on  the  Pine  Log, 
as  a  staff  member  or  free-lancer, 
according  to  Price. 

The  Pine  Log  staff  is  dedicated  to 
covering  news  on  campus  and  in  the 
community.  "Anybody  who  lives  in 
Nacogdoches  should  be  concerned  with 
the  community,"  Prince  said.  The  staff 
had  28  members  in  the  fall,  including 
Tina  Benson,  student  publications  ad- 
viser. The  staff  includes  not  only 
reporters  and  writers  but  also 
photographers,  an  artist  and  an  adver- 
tising staff. 

"I  give  generous  listening  to  anybody 
who  offers  criticism  (of  The  Pine  Log)," 
Prince  said.  His  own  criticism  of  the 
newspaper  has  led  him  to  make  "You 
Said  It"  a  part  of  every  issue.  "You  Said 
It"  is  a  column  of  personal  interviews  of 
SFA  students  in  which  they  state  their 
opinion  on  a  current  news  situation. 
Another  addition  to  the  newspaper  is  a 
crossword  puzzle  which  runs  on 
Fridays. 

The  Pine  Log  offers  experience  to 
students  studying  journalism.  It  keeps 
students  aware  of  the  campus  and  of 
themselves.  Have  you  read  it  lately?

The  Nursing,  Math  and  Science 
Building,  which  first  held  classes 
in  the  fall  of  1983,  has  65,000 
square  feet  on  its  three  floors,  the 
first  of  which  houses  nursing 
facilities.  The  second  floor  has 
math  classrooms,  and  the  third 
holds  offices  and  a  library  for  the 
math  department.  The  building 
also  houses  a  2,000  square  foot 
planetarium  which  the  physics 
department  operates. 

With  the  opening  of  the  Early 
Childhood  Laboratory  came  new 
classes  and  many  more  students 
for  that  department.  The  building 
has  three  areas  for  teaching 
children,  a  classroom,  a  kitchen 
and  a  resource  room,  which  holds 
audio-visual  equipment  and  a 
library.  The  number  of  early 
childhood  courses  offered  leaped 
from  six  to  19  when  this  building 


opened. 

Ferguson  North,  the  new  liberal 
arts  building,  greatly  increased 
the  space  available  for  such  re- 
quired classes  as  English,  history 
and  political  science.  When  this 
building  was  completed,  offices 
were  moved  into  it  to  provide 
more  classroom  space  in  the  older 
building.  In  addition  to  offices,  the 
new  building  also  holds  two  lec- 
ture halls. 

Renovation  of  the  Griffith  Fine 
Arts  Building  included  remodeling 
the  auditorium  and  reworking  the 
air  circulation  system. 

Dorm  20  represents  an  in- 
novative approach  to  student 
housing  in  that  some  of  its  rooms 
are  planned  to  accommodate 
wheel  chairs,  and  a  hall  down  the 
center  of  the  building  holds  the 
electrical  wires  and  plumbing.

Guest  Artist  Series  presents  Chet  Atkins 


by  Darrell  Gregory 

When  I  was  a  little  kid  I  thought  Chet 
Atkins  invented  the  guitar.  Now  I  know 
he  did. 

A  near  capacity  crowd  came  out  on  a 
rainy  Friday  night  and  poured  into 
SFA's  Grand  Ballroom  to  watch  the 
master  weave  simple  melodies  into  a 
fabric  of  multi-faceted  sounds  the  way 
only  he  has  done  for  30  years. 

Speaking  briefly  before  the  show  with 
perhaps  the  world's  foremost  guitarist,  I 
found  him  to  be  a  soft-spoken,  reticent 
man. 

"I'm  not  in  the  kind  of  shape  I  was  in 
the  past,  because  I  don't  play  for  the 
public  as  much  now,"  he  said  modestly. 
"But  I  don't  think  I  embarrass  myself." 

He  certainly  did  not.  There  may  be  a 
modicum  of  obscure  classical  guitarists 
who  are  technically  better  than  Chet 


Atkins,  and  there  are  probably  a  few 
popular  players  now  as  good.  But 
Atkins  made  all  this  stuff  up  before 
many  of  them  were  born.  He  led  the 
way,  and  everyorie  who  has  picked  up  a 
guitar  in  the  last  20  years  has  felt  his 
influence. 

"Mr.  Guitar,"  a  Tennessean  who  rode 
his  guitar  out  of  a  backward,  poverty- 
ridden  life  onto  a  Nashville  throne, 
played  both  the  classical  guitar  (solo, 
sitting  on  a  stool)  and  his  beautiful 
maroon  Gretsch  electric  (accompanied 
by  a  four-piece  band)  for  an  adoring 
audience. 

Watching  his  amazing  fingers  do  their 
elaborate,  meticulous  work  made  it 
hard  for  me  to  concentrate  fully  on  the 
sound.  So  I  closed  my  eyes  a  few  times 
and  realized  just  how  very  good  he  is. 
"Black    Mountain    Rag,"  "Orange 


Blossom  Special,"  "Yakity  Axe"  and  I] 
"Swedish  Rhapsody"  were  all  there.  He  i 
divided  his  performance  between  coun-  1 
try  classics  and  classical  classics.  Real 
Hillbilly,  huh? 

"There  are  always  newspaper  critics 
in  the  audience  and  they  listen  for  j 
mistakes,"  Atkins  said,  "so  I  always 
make  a  few."  He  did  have  a  few  in- 
conspicuous lapses  in  the  musical  heart 
of  the  moment. 

But  the  fact  is,  Chet  Atkins,  who  just 
turned  60,  was  a  legend  before  many  of 
us  were  born.  And  his  slips  were  justly  j 
hidden  from  my  admiring  ears.

"Musicians  are  a  little  different.  We 
need  to  perform.  We're  willing  to  share 
that  with  others,"  said  Dr.  Robert  Miller, 
chairman  of  the  music  department.  The 
best  of  the  different  gave  a  crowd 
pleasing  performance  September  24  in 
the  Music  Recital  Hall. 

The  faculty  recital  fulfilled  what  Dr. 
Miller  calls  one  of  the  missions  of  the 
music  department  —  to  give  the  culture 
of  the  community  a  new  dimension.

music.

and  the  aria,  "O  ruddier  than  the 
cherry"  by  Handel,  highlighted  the 
middle  of  the  recital. 

Dr.  Richard  Coolidge  had  his 
composition    "Three    Songs  of 
Night"    performed    by  Charles 
Gavin  on  the  horn  and  Shirley 
Watterston  on  the  piano.  Dr.  Coolidge  is 
professor  of  music. 

The  last  performance  of  the  evening 
was  prefaced  with  a  poem,  "Ondine" 
read  by  Dr.  Garner.  Andrew  Parr  played 
the  piano  complement  to  the  poem.

Kent  McGowan 


Welcome  to 
Mr.  Rogers' 
neighborhood 


Natural  beauty  on  the  SFA  campus  is 
a  product  of  a  trained  ornamental  hor- 
ticulturalist,  Horticulture  Club  members 
and  dedicated  groundskeepers.  Robert 
Rogers  graduated  with  a  degree  in  or- 
namental horticulture  from  Texas  A&M 
Gniversity  and  is  head  of  the  grounds 
department  at  SFA. 

"I  really  enjoy  my  job  here;  it  gives 
me  the  opportunity  to  be  more  creative 
than  any  job  I  held  in  private  practice," 
Rogers  said. 

Rogers  had  his  own  business  for  17 
years  before  joining  the  grounds  depart- 
ment at  SFA.  The  grounds  department 
had  originally  been  a  part  of  the 
grounds  and  transportation  department. 
The  two  departments  were  divided, 
leaving  a  vacancy  for  head  of  grounds. 


"When  the  position  became  available,  I 
was  interested  in  it  "  Rogers  said. 

Rogers'  interest  in  flowers  extends 
back  to  his  father.  "My  father  had  an 
avid  interest  in  azaleas  and  camellias, 
and  some  of  his  interest  rubbed  off  on 
me,"  he  said. 

"I  never  stop  studying,  I  keep  up  with 
all  of  the  new  material  in  the  field  and 
constantly  attend  seminars, "Rogers 
said. 

The  SFA  campus  has  hundreds  of 
varieties  of  plants.  Some  are  perma- 
nent, those  which  will  last  year  round 
and  some  are  seasonal,  those  that  will 
grow  for  only  one  season. 

"We  get  almost  100  percent  of  our 
seasonal  plants  from  a  cooperation  pro- 
gram with  the  Horticulture  Club,  headed 


108  —  Campus

by  Dr  David  Creech.  It  allows  a 
lot  of  production  control  on  my  part  and 
provides  great  experience  for 
students,"  Rogers  said. 

The  grounds  department  works  in 
cooperation  with  the  club  to  conduct 
experimentation  with  plants.  The  Hor- 
ticulture club  has  a  trials  plot  in  which 
many  different  types  of  seasonal  plants 
are  planted  to  see  what  will  perform 
best  in  this  area. 

The  campus  has  many  different 
types  of  trees  that  the  grounds  person- 
nel must  maintain.  "Our  goal  for  the  fall 
and  winter  is  to  increase  the  number  of 
dogwood,  crepe  myrtle,  crab  apple  and 
other  flowering  trees,"  Rogers  said. 

"Certain  plants  will  grow  where 
others  will  not,"  he  said,  "andt  some 


seed  catalogs  say  on  the  package,  all 
plants  would  grow  wonderfully 
wherever  you  plant  them,  "Rogers  said. 
"That's  just  not  the  case;  various  plants 
do  better  in  some  parts  of  the  world 
than  others." 

A  constant  challenge  for  the  grounds 
department  is  trying  to  make  the 
flowers  bloom  before  students  go  home 
for  the  summer.  By  planting  different 
varieties  earlier  than  others  and  combin- 
ing their  colors,  the  grounds  depart- 
ment hopes  that  students  will  be  able  to 
see  them  before  they  go  away  for 
vacation." 

"1    think    probably    the  greatest 
satisfaction  comes  from  the  people  tell- 
ing me  how  nice  the  campus  looks." 
Rogers  said.  |p

Reflections  of  the  seasons  grace  the 
campus  throughout  the  year.  In  the  fall 
crisp  air  accompanies  hues  of  gold,  red, 
orange  and  brown.  Winter  paints  the  stark 
dormant  trees  and  evergreens  against 
glowing  sunsets. 

With  the  arrival  of  spring  lively  purples, 
reds  and  yellows  dot  corners  and  beds  in 
rows  of  tulips  and  pansies.  The  smell  of 
freshly  cut  grass  and  spray  of  water 
sprinklers  heralds  summer. 

As  William  Wordsworth  once  said, 
"Come  forth  into  the  light  of  things,  let 
nature  be  your  teacher."

Class  restores  tree 


By  Beth  Choate 

Even  as  many  people  prepare  for 
careers  in  the  computer  age,  a  select 
group  of  people  is  working  to  save 
monuments  of  the  past  through  repairing 
and  restoring  trees  that,  for  one  reason  or 
another,  are  unhealthy. 

Last  fall  a  small  forestry  class  accepted 
the  challenge  of  trying  to  save  a  150-year- 
old  oak  tree  on  campus.  The  tree,  located 
on  Wilson  Drive  between  Starr  Apartments 
and  the  tennis  courts,  was  more  than 
three-fourths  dead  when  the  students 
began  working  to  save  it.  Water  had  run 
down  limbs,  collecting  in  the  center  of  the 
tree  where  limbs  meet  the  trunk,  making 
conditions  favorable  for  rot. 

The  class  began  by  cutting  at  least  two- 
thirds  of  the  dying  tree  in  a  process  called 
dehorning,  Dr.  Victor  Bilan,  professor  of 
forestry,  said.  Dead  parts  on  the  top  and 
sides  were  cut,  and  fungicides  and  insec- 
ticides were  used  to  avert  disease. 
Students  sealed  the  cuts  with  paint  as 


112  —  Campus 


another  precaution  against  disease. 

Rot  was  removed  from  the  center  of  the 
tree,  and  the  resulting  cavity  was  sealed 
with  a  cement  cap  supported  by  hardware 
cloth.  The  cap  should  prevent  water  from 
getting  into  the  tree. 

The  class  also  removed  dead  bark  and 
wood  from  the  trunk  of  the  tree.  Hardware 
cloth  molded  and  stapled  to  the  trunk 
formed  a  framework  on  which  class 
members  applied  cement  to  form  a  seal. 

The  students  used  their  hands  to  put  the 
cement  into  place  to  avoid  getting  too 
much  cement  through  the  hardware  cloth. 
The  extra  weight  of  too  much  cement 
would  be  unhealthy  for  the  tree,  Dr.  Bilan 
said. 

By  removing  dead  parts  and  repairing 
the  cuts  and  cavities,  the  class  hopes  to 
help  rejuvenate  the  tree. 

"It  looks  to  me,  unless  something 
unusual  happens,  the  tree  will  be  alive 
next  spring,"  Bilan  said.

Classes  study  jewelry  as  art  form 


By  Carol  Fougerat 

For  the  past  20  years,  the  SFA  art 
department  has  offered  instruction  in 
the  making  of  jewelry.  Jewelry  making 
is  not  only  fun,  but  also  an  art  which 
can  lead  to  profit. 

According  to  James  Snyder,  pro- 
fessor of  art,  jewelry  making  is  taught 
as  an  art  form  rather  than  as  a  business. 
"Students  learn  what  goes  into  making 
a  piece  of  jewelry  —  the  thought  pro- 
cess," Snyder  said.  "It's  different  from 
all  other  art  forms." 

Snyder  began  making  jewelry 
through  a  course  in  college.  He  teaches 
the  jewelry  courses  with  Bert  Rees, 
associate  professor  of  art.  Rees  owned  a 
jewelry  store  in  Austin  for  15  years  and 
decided  to  come  to  SFA  as  a  painter. 
Both  professors  teach  a  variety  of 
courses. 

There  are  two  multi-level  jewelry- 
making  courses  offered  through  the  art 


department.  The  first  course  is  fabrica- 
tion, where  students  learn  the  basics  of 
design  and  manufacturing.  At  this  level 
students  are  taught  sawing,  cutting,  fil- 
ing, finishing  and  stone  setting. 
"Fabrication  is  the  forming  and  various 
methods  of  metal  manipulation," 
Snyder  said. 


Students  use  a  variety  of  metals  and 
other  materials  in  making  their  jewelry. 
The  materials  range  from  basic 
telephone  wire  to  diamond.  Some  of  the 
most  common  materials  used  are 
gold, silver,  brass,  copper,  nickel  and 
combinations  of  these.  The  individual 
supplies  all  the  tools  needed. 


"Students  learn  what  goes  into  making  a  piece 
of  jewelry  —  the  thought  process." 


The  second  class  involves  casting. 
Casting  is  learning  the  basics  of  con- 
struction of  a  variety  of  metals.  In  the 
upper  levels,  students  learn  stone  cut- 
ting and  complex  construction  of 
jewelry  pieces. 


"The  thing  that  seems  to  shy  people 
from  taking  the  courses  is  the  cost; 
however,  it's  not  that  expensive.  It  real- 
ly depends  on  the  materials  you  want  to 
use,"  Snyder  said.

College  in  prison  impacts  2  lives 


By  Jeff  Prince 

It  was  November  1978  when  David  Mor- 
ris, then  21,  was  sentenced  to  life  for 
murder  and  sent  to  Coffield  State 
Penitentiary. 

Morris  turns  28  this  month.  He  is  eligible 
for  parole  in  1997.  Taking  classes  to  keep 
his  mind  active,  Morris  said  he  hopes  to 
graduate  this  spring  with  a  degree  in  office 
administration. 

"The  degree  itself  is  not  that  impor- 
tant," he  said.  "If  and  when  I  get  out  of 
here,  I'll  have  to  go  back  to  school  to  get 
the  degree  I  want.  This  is  just  something  to 
do.  Something  to  keep  my  mind  from 
stagnating." 

"But,"  Morris  said,  "there  has  never 
been  a  male  member  of  the  Morris  family 
that  graduated  from  college,  so  it's  going 
to  be  a  big  deal  for  me  and  my  parents, 
even  if  I  am  in  prison.  They've  helped  me  a 
lot,  here  and  when  I  was  in  the  free  world." 

"You  see  people  walking  around  here 
and  their  idea  of  doing  something  is  going 
to  work,  coming  in  and  watching  TV  or 
playing  dominoes  all  night,"  he  said.  "I'm 


learning.  This  is  keeping  my  mind  from  go- 
ing to  waste." 

Morris  said  he  hopes  to  begin  work  on  a 
master's  degree  after  graduation.  Morris 
works  in  the  prison  commissary  from  2  to 
10  p.m.,  five  days  a  week.  He  hopes  to 
become  a  lawyer  one  day  —  "Most  people 
in  here  want  to  be  lawyers." 

Morris  said  he  reads,  writes  letters  and 
does  school  work  until  2  p.m.  when  he 
goes  to  work.  When  he  finishes  work  at  10 
p.m.,  he  eats,  listens  to  the  radio,  reads, 
writes,  studies  and  goes  to  bed  about  1 
a.m. 

Morris  said  he  survives  his  situation  by 
living  "day  to  day." 

Maurice  Thomas  came  back  from  Viet- 
nam in  1972  after  two  years  service.  "I 
was  just  sick  of  things,"  he  said.  "I  kept 
letting  things  bottle  up  and  bottle  up  until 
it  would  just  explode.  That's  what  got  me 
here." 

Sent  to  Coffield  eight  years  ago, 
Thomas  is  up  for  parole  now  and  said  he 
will  know  by  the  middle  of  November  if  he 


will  be  released. 

Thomas  earned  an  associate  art  degree 
at  Coffield.  He  does  portraits  of  his  family, 
other  prisoners'  family  members  or 
girlfriends,  or  anything  in  his  mind  he 
wants  on  paper.  He  charges  about  $25  to 
do  a  portrait  for  another  prisoner. 

After  Thomas  gets  out  of  prison,  he  said 
he  wants  to  work  as  a  welder  and  do  por- 
traits for  extra  money  to  support  his  wife 
and  two  children. 

Thomas  was  convicted  of  murder  eight 
years  ago  after  he  killed  a  man  during  a 
fight  over  a  girl  in  a  disco  parking  lot. 

Thomas  said  his  court-appointed  lawyer 
didn't  help  him,  and  his  character 
witnesses  ended  up  hurting  more  than 
helping  him  during  the  trial. 

"I  see  the  world  in  a  whole  different 
perspective  since  I've  been  taking  classes 
here,"  he  said.  "The  part  of  learning  that 
most  helped  me  was  the  psychological 
part  of  learning  about  myself.  I'm  condi- 
tioning my  mind  so  I  can  control  myself 
when  1  get  out  of  here."  Jffo

After  2  years,  many  miles 


Professor  obtains  low  degree 


By  Cathy  Dudley 

Elizabeth  Deanne  Malpass 
remembers  one  of  the  first  books  she 
read  was  a  history  of  the  world.  She 
opened  the  book  to  a  passage  on  Alex- 
ander the  Great  and  soon  after  began 
reading  everything  she  could  find  about 
the  ancient  world.  Since  that  time  she 
has  come  to  believe  that  history  gives  a 
meaning  and  pattern  to  life  and 
experience. 

Dr.  Malpass  says  that  before  the  age 
of  20  she  had  not  considered  a  career  in 
teaching.  She  was  working  on  her 
master's  degree  when  she  was  asked  to 
replace  a  teacher  at  the  University  of 
Miami  who  was  ill.  Her  mother's  great 
uncle  is  the  only  other  university 
teacher  in  her  family. 


As  an  undergraduate  at  William  and 
Mary  College  in  Virginia,  Dr.  Malpass 
majored  in  English  and  history.  From 
William  and  Mary  she  went  to  the 


"Law  is  sort  of  my 
tennis." 


University  of  Miami  where  she  received 
a  master  of  arts  degree  in  history  and 
was  an  instructor  for  a  year.  After  work- 
ing about  two  years  in  the  aviation 
business  during  which  time  she  began 
traveling  outside  the  United  States,  Dr. 
Malpass    went    to    Texas  Christian 


University  to  work  on  a  doctoral  degree 
in  history.  She  attended  TCU  on  a 
teaching  fellowship  and  graduated  in 
1969  after  receiving  a  Richardson  Foun- 
dation Grant  for  study  in  London. 

About  her  interest  in  history  she 
says,  "My  answer  is  so  unintellectual 
that  it's  appalling.  I  love  it.  I've  heard  all 
sorts  of  more  practical  reasons."  Dr. 
Malpass  says  the  size  and  location  of 
Nacogdoches  appealed  to  her  when  she 
joined  the  SFA  faculty  in  1969. 
However,  the  role  of  teacher  remains 
only  one  side  of  this  many-faceted  pro- 
fessor. Within  her  lies  a  student,  not  on- 
ly of  history,  but  also  of  a  foundation  of 
history  -  law. 

The  logic  of  the  law  appealed  to  her 
and  as  a  historian  she  wanted  to  learn- 
more   about   the   constitutional  and 


legal  evolution  of  Britain.  Her  desire  to 
become  a  lawyer  sent  her  back  and 
forth  to  the  South  Texas  College  of  Law 
in  Houston  for  two  years  while  she  con- 
tinued to  teach  full  time.  "Nobody 
made  me  do  it,"  she  says.  "Law  is  sort 
of  my  tennis."  Dr.  Malpass  received  her 
degree  in  the  spring. 

As  an  associate  professor  in  the- 
Department  of  History,  Dr.  Malpass 


teaches  courses  on  western  civilization, 
the  Vikings,  a  topical  course:  Winston 
Churchill  and  the  20th  Century,  and 
graduate  seminars.  Since  the  fall  she 
has  taught  a  survey  of  British  history  in 
which  she  incorporates  lectures  with 
slides  of  England  and  Western  Europe. 
Although  she  received  her  law  degree 
this  spring,  Dr.  Malpass  doesn't  plan  to 
give  up  teaching.  She  will  be  a  summer- 


time lawyer,  she  says. 

With  a  twinkle  in  her  eye  she  adds, 
"Next  year  I  plan  to  go  to  medical 
school  in  Galveston.  At  65  I  might  join 
the  Peace  Corps  and  really  do 
something  different."  Such  statements 
are  symbolic  of  Dr.  Malpass's  approach 
to  life.  As  she  says,  "I  don't  care  much 
for  disinterested  compassion . " 


KSAU  celebrates  1 0  years  at  SFA 


By  Cathy  Dudley 

SFA's  radio  station,  KSACI, 
celebrates  its  10th  anniversary  this  spr- 
ing. The  station  was  licensed  and  began 
broadcasting  with  1000  watts  in  1975 
after  meeting  the  Federal  Communica- 
tion Commission's  qualifications. 

The  station  provides  an  alternative  to 
Nacogdoches  radio  listeners,  assistant 
manager  Tracey  Henderson,  said.  The 
station  is  non-commercial  which  means 
the  staff  must  discover  community  pro- 
blems and  needs  and  coordinate  pro- 

"The  station  provides  an 
alternative... " 


gramming  to  solve  those  problems  and 
meet  recognized  needs. 

Students  work  at  the  station  as 
newscasters,  disc  jockeys  and  in 
various  other  capacities  through  a  prac- 
ticum  class,  Communication  319. 
Twenty-six  students  earned  academic 
credit  working  at  KSACI  in  the  fall.  The 
spring  staff  consisted  of  32  students. 
Students  must  take  Audio  Production 
Techniques  before  they  can  enroll  in 
319.  Gpon  completion  of  the  prere- 
quisite each  student  is  licensed  by  the 
FCC.  Besides  the  practicum  class  and 
volunteers,  the  station  does  have  paid 
positions  including:  station  manager, 
assitant  station  manager  and  news 
director.  Jason  Anderson  was  news 
director  in  the  fall  and  spring. 

While  Dr.  Robert  T.  Ramsey, 
associate  professor  of  communication, 
provided  the  impetus  for  the  creation  of 
the  station,  Dr.  William  J.  Oliver, 
associate  professor  of  communication, 
has  been  the  faculty  adviser  for  nine 
years.  The  station's  Monday  through 
Friday  fall  lineup  included  a  Classical 
Hour  from  1  to  2  p.m.,  a  program  of 
easy  listening  vocals  and  instrumentals 
called  The  Great  Ones  from  2  to  5  p.m. 
and  two  and  one-half  hours  of  jazz  from 
5  to  7:30  p.m.  Night  Rock  began  at  8 
p.m.  and  lasted  until  midnight.  It  was 
preceded  by  a  discussion  program  from 
7:30  to  8  p.m. 

KSACI  is  located  at  FM  90  on  the  dial. 
Since  it  is  a  public  service  station,  the 
management  is  required  to  give  the 
FCC  a  day-by-day,  hour-by-hour  break- 
down of  programming  as  well  as  com- 
plete a  community  problems-issues  list 
four  times  a  year. 

According  to  Terry  Caywood,  station 
manager,  the  on-air  experience  can't  be 

116  -  Campus 


beat,  especially  in  news,  since  you  im- 
prove as  a  broadcast  journalist  when 
you  are  on  the  air  live.  "Everyone  can 
be  trained  to  operate  equipment  but  not 
everyone  can  produce  a  good 
newscast,"  he  said.  Caywood  was  the 
first  SFA  student  to  receive  a  senior 
scholarship  of  $500  from  the  Texas 
Broadcast  Education  Foundation  in  the 
fall.  He  competed  with  senior  radio- 
television  majors  at  about  20  four-year 
colleges  in  Texas. 


Students  cover  local  news  and  write 
stories  to  be  broadcast.  The  station 
facilities  and  equipment  are  funded 
through  the  Department  of  Communica- 
tion. Caywood  said  one  thing  holding 
the  station  back  is  the  lack  of  a 
transmitter  to  boost  the  receiver  range 
outside  Loop  224.  "We  could  continue 
to  broadcast  the  way  we  are  (now),  but 
we'll  be  behind  in  the  market,"  he  said. 
A  10,000  transmitter  would  allow  the 
station  to  broadcast  in  stereo.

Actors  excel  in  Russian  satire 


The  Department  of  Theatre  presented  "The  Govern- 
ment Inspector"  October  2  through  6  in  Room  102  of 
Liberal  Arts  North.  A  cast  of  22  performed  the  play 
which  concerns  bourgeois  falsehood  and  mediocrity  in  a 
small  town  in  Russia  during  the  early  nineteenth  century. 

The  production  staff  consisted  of  17  people  and 
members  of  Theatre  225,  Introduction  to  State  Costume 
and  Makeup. 

The  world  of  "The  Government  Inspector"  is  a  world 
of  bureaucratic  corruption  in  which  people  have  been  de- 
meaned by  petty  power  struggles,  petty  ambitions  and 
petty  bribes,  according  to  Dr.  Herman  L.  Zillmer,  pro- 


fessor of  theatre. 

The  comic  satire  entertained  a  full  house  every  night. 
Dr.  Zillmer  was  the  director.  Thomas  M.  Matthys,  as- 
sistant professor  of  theatre,  was  in  charge  of  lighting. 
Costume  and  make-up  were  managed  by  Judy  Marcus, 
assistant  professor  of  theatre. 

"The  Government  Inspector"  was  written  by  Nikolai 
Gogol,  adapted  by  Peter  Raby  and  based  on  a  translation 
by  Leonid  Ignatieff. 

The  play  stimulated  both  laughter  and  thought  from 
its  audiences  reflecting  the  excellence  of  the  actors' 
performances.  i§S

Greeks 


There  are  six  national  social 
sororities  and  ten  fraternities  whose 
membership  makes  up  approximately 
one  tenth  of  the  entire  student  enroll- 
ment at  SFA. 

Greeks  play  an  important  role  in  com- 
munity and  campus  life.  Although 
Greeks  are  usually  associated  with 
social  functions,  they  also  are  actively 
involved  in  many  service  projects  and 
activities. 

Each  group  is  made  up  of  many  in- 
dividuals that  share  a  common  interest 
and  a  common  goal.  Each  member  is 
true  to  his  organization  but  is  also  sup- 
portive of  the  Greek  system  as  a  whole. 
This  is  shown  through  the  participation 
and  cooperation  the  Greeks  give  one 
another  in  various  events. 


Some  of  the  activities  that  the  Greek 
organizations  combine  efforts  on  are 
Sigma  Chi  Derby  Week,  to  raise  money 
for  Wallace  Village  for  children,  Sigma 
Kappa  Sexy  Leggs  contest,  Greek  Week 
and  the  TEKE  Fest.  This  year  the  Phi 
Delts  and  the  ATOs  joined  forces  to 
raise  money  for  the  SFA  Statue  Fund 
and  the  Chi  Omegas  and  the  Lambda 
Chi's  worked  together  to  raise  money 
for  Muscular  Dystrophy. 

Being  "Greek"  takes  a  lot  of  time,  but 
it  builds  leadership  qualities  and  helps 
to  teach  how  to  get  along  with  a  group 
of  individuals.  The  Greek  system  is  a 
major  part  of  college  life  and  is  an  im- 
portant part  for  the  people  who  are  in- 
volved in  it.

Panhellenic  Council 


Council  promotes  unity  among  sororities 


Panhellenic  Council  is  the  governing 
body  of  the  social  sororities.  The  coun- 
cil is  composed  of  representatives  from 
each  of  the  six  sororities.  Members 
must  be  respected,  knowledgeable 
chapter  members  who  are  strongly 
committed  to  fraternal  ideals. 

The  major  function  of  the  group  is  to 


coordinate  women's  rush.  They  set  up 
the  rules  and  qualifications  for  par- 
ticipation in  rush.  The  council  is  also 
responsible  for  the  welcome  pledge  pic- 
nic, the  scholarship  banquet  and  Greek 
Week. 

"The  college  panhellenic  is  effective 


because  it  is  determined  by  the  respect 
given  it  by  the  sororities  and  the  rest  of 
the  campus,"  said  Monique  Matthews, 
president.  In  conjunction  with  Inter- 
fraternity  Council,  Panhellenic  has  been 
both  efficient  and  effective  in  the  coor- 
dinating of  Greek  activities.

IFC  -  More  than  just  a  governing  body 


The  main  purpose  of  the  Interfraterni- 
ty Council  is  to  promote  the  interests  of 
the  social  fraternities  at  SFA  and  to  en- 
sure cooperation  between  the  frater- 
nities and  the  community. 

Interfraternity  Council  is  composed 
of  three  members  from  each  of  the  ten 
fraternities.  The  representatives  discuss 
questions  of  mutual  interest  and  pre- 
sent the  fraternities  with  such  recom- 


mendations as  the  council  sees  fit. 

IFC's  major  function  is  to  coordinate 
men's  rush.  This  year  the  council  began 
having  a  "dry  rush"  party  during  rush 
week.  "Dry  rush  worked  really  well," 
Brett  Kasuls,  president,  said.  "It  gives 
rushees  a  chance  to  see  the 
brotherhood  the  fraternities  have  to  of- 
fer without  alcohol." 

IFC  plans  Greek  Week  and  the  Greek 


scholarship  banquet  with  Panhellenic 
Council.  IFC  members  also  participate 
in  civic  projects  and  school-supported 
projects.  "IFC  is  more  than  just  the 
governing  body  of  the  fraternities," 
Kasuls  said.  "It  promotes  the  Greek 
system  as  a  whole  and  it  promotes 
scholastic  achievement  within  the 
Greek  system."

Alpha  Chi  Omega  encourages  sisterhood 


The  purpose  of  the  Alpha  Chi  Omega 
sorority  is  to  encourage  the  spirit  of  true 
sisterhood,  to  develop  through  personal 
effort  a  high  moral  and  mental  standard 
and  to  advance  the  appreciation  and 
practice  of  applied  arts  among  its 
members. 

Alpha  Chi  Omega  was  founded  at 
SFA  in  1967.  The  sorority's  colors  are 


red  and  green  and  the  flower  is  the  red 
carnation. 

The  Alpha  Chi  philanthrophies  are 
cystic  fibrosis,  the  Easter  Seal  Founda- 
tion and  the  MacDowell  Colony.  The 
chapter  raised  money  for  these  charities 
by  sponsoring  their  annual  golf 
tournament. 


Alpha  Chi  members  also  participated 
in  many  campus  and  Greek  activities. 
Greek  Week,  Derby  Week  and 
Homecoming  are  just  a  few  of  the  ac- 
tivities the  members  were  involved  in. 

The  sorority  had  a  barn  dance  in 
November,  and  they  held  their  annual 
fall  formal  in  San  Antonio.

Alpha  Tau  Omega  extends  brotherhood 


Alpha  Tau  Omega's  main  purpose  is 
to  extend  brotherhood  to  its  members, 
to  work  together  for  a  better  fraternity 
and  community,  and  to  participate  in 
service  work,  scholarship  and  inter- 
fraternity  relations. 

The  Eta  lota  chapter  of  Alpha  Tau 
Omega  was  founded  in  April  of  1968. 


The  fraternity's  colors  are  navy  blue 
and  gold  and  the  flower  is  the  white 
rose. 

Annual  projects  of  the  ATO  fraternity 
were  the  American  Heart  Association 
Fund  drive,  Sacred  Heart  Church  serv- 
ice work,  Founder's  Day  weekend  and 


homecoming  events. 

This  year  the  ATOs  joined  forces 
with  the  Phi  Delta  Theta  fraternity  and 
raised  over  $400  for  the  SFA  statue 
fund. 

In  November,  ATO  members  held 
their  annual  fall  formal  in  New  Orleans.

Chi-O's  work  together  to  achieve  goals 


Chi  Omega  seeks  to  promote  friend- 
ship among  college  women  and  to  work 
together  to  achieve  goals  set  by  the 
sorority.  The  sorority's  open  motto  is 
"Hellenic  Culture  and  Christian  Ideals." 

Chi  Omega  was  founded  at  SFA  in 
1963.  The  colors  of  the  sorority  are  car- 
dinal and  straw  and  the  flower  is  the 
white  carnation. 


Chi  Omega  members  are  involved  in 
a  variety  of  campus  activities  and 
organizations.  Some  of  these  are 
cheerleading,  band,  SGA,  RHA,  Order  of 
Omega  and  Campus  Crusade  for  Christ. 

Although  the  Chi  Omega  sorority  has 
no  national  philanthropy,  the  chapter 
helps  the  community  with  its  individual 


needs.  This  year  the  Chi-Os  raised 
money  for  the  Nacogdoches  Children's 
Foster  Home  by  sponsoring  a  bike-a- 
thon  with  the  Lambda  Chi  Alpha 
fraternity. 

In  the  fall,  the  Chi-O  members  attend- 
ed the  annual  formal  and  the  group 
chose  Rich  Couilvian  as  their  beau.

Tri-Delts  make  big  plans  for  the  future 


The  purpose  of  Delta  Delta  Delta  is  to 
establish  a  bond  of  friendship  among  its 
members  and  to  help  them  develop  a 
stronger  character.  "Tri  Delta  is  a  very 
sepcial  group  of  girls  that  has  made  my 
college  years  much  more  enjoyable," 
said  Alice  McKay,  San  Antonio  junior. 

The  Tri  Delts  were  founded  at  SFA  in 
1972,  and  the  sorority  is  one  of  the  top 
three  sororities  nationally.  Their  colors 
are  silver,  gold  and  blue,  and  their 


flower  is  the  pansy.  The  sorority's  open 
motto  is  "Let  Gs  Steadfastly  Love  One 
Another." 

Tri  Delt  members  are  involved  in 
many  campus  activities  and  organiza- 
tions. In  the  fall  the  sorority  placed  first 
in  the  Sigma  Chi  Derby  Week.  They 
also  raised  money  for  Children's  Cancer 
Research  and  sponsored  two  women's 
scholarships. 

In  the  spring,  the  Delta  Delta  Delta 


chapter  broke  ground  for  the  building  of 
their  house.  The  house  is  being  built  in 
Creek  Bend  where  other  sororities  are 
also  building  houses.  "I'm  really  excited 
about  the  house,"  McKay  said.  "We've 
worked  really  hard  for  it  and  it  is  very 
special  to  us." 

The  Tri  Delts  held  their  annual  fall 
'crush  party"  and  had  a  Stars  and  Cres- 
cent Ball  in  the  spring.

Delta  Sigs  exemplify  leadership  qualities 


"In  Delta  Sigma  Phi,  leadership 
develops  through  brotherhood,"  Billy 
Trotta,  president,  said.  We  place  an  em- 
phasis on  responsibility  and  leadership 
through  our  engineered  leadership 
program." 

Because  of  the  leadership  qualities 
that  the  Delta  Sigma  Phi  chapter  has  ex- 
emplified, they  won  third  place  for  the 
Overall  Best  Chapter.  Ross  Crowe  was 
also  runner-up  as  the  National  Active  of 


the  Year.  "We  feel  that  the  leadership 
and  diversity  in  our  members  sets  us 
apart  from  other  fraternities,"  Trotta 
said.  "The  strength  in  our  brotherhood 
lies  in  the  individuals  in  Delta  Sigma 
Phi." 

Delta  Sigma  Phi  was  the  first  national 
fraternity  on  the  SFA  campus.  It  was 
founded  November  27,  1960.  Its  colors 
are  green  and  white,  and  the  flower  is 


the  carnation. 

Delta  Sigs  held  their  annual  Playboy 
Bunny  Night  in  March.  Proceeds  went 
to  the  March  of  Dimes.  Other  service 
projects  included  working  with  the 
Nacogdoches  Boys'  Home  and  the 
Nacogdoches  Treatment  Center. 

The  brothers  of  Delta  Sigma  Phi  at- 
tended their  annual  "Dreamgirl"  formal 
in  the  spring.

Delta  Zetas  promote  unity  and  friendship 


The  purpose  of  the  Delta  Zeta  sorori- 
ty is  to  unite  its  members  in  the  bonds 
of  sincere  friendship,  to  stimulate  one 
another  in  the  pursuit  of  knowledge,  to 
promote  the  moral  and  social  culture  of 
its  members  and  to  develop  plans  for 
guidance  and  unity  in  action. 

The  Beta  Psi  chapter  of  Delta  Zeta 
was  established  at  SFA  in  1963.  The 
colors  of  the  sorority  are  rose  and 


green,  and  the  flower  is  the  Killarney 
Rose. 

The  Delta  Zeta  chapter  was  involved 
in  many  philanthropic  projects.  Dee 
Zees  collected  canned  food  for  the 
needy,  were  involved  in  the  adopted 
"grandparents"  program,  raised  money 
for  GNICEF  and  made  contributions  to 
MADD. 

Members  of  the  Delta  Zeta  also  par- 


ticipated in  many  campus  and  social  ac- 
tivities. Some  of  these  events  were 
Greek  Week,  Derby  Week,  Founder's 
Day,  Parent's  Day,  Homecoming,  Pro- 
vince Weekend  and  exchanges  with  the 
fraternities. 

Delta  Zetas  attended  the  annual 
Christmas  dance  in  December  at  the 
Fredonia  Inn.

KA's  preserve  Southern  tradition 


KA 


Kappa  Alpha  Order  is  based  on  the 
traditional  South,  and  its  purpose  is  to 
preserve  the  cherished  precepts  of 
chivalry  and  honors.  Being  Southern  in 
origin  the  members  seek  to  perpetuate 
the  ideals  of  manly  virtue  as  ex- 
emplified in  the  life  of  Robert  E.  Lee. 

At  the  beginning  of  the  year  the 
fraternity  moved  into  a  newly  built 
house.  The  new  KA  mansion  was 
specifically  designed  and  built  to  fit  the 


fraternity's  needs.  "The  new  Kappa 
Alpha  mansion  reflects  the  true 
southern  heritage  of  the  Kappa  Alpha 
Order  and  is  a  decisive  move  to  bigger 
and  better  things  for  the  Delta  Kappa 
chapter,"  said  Anthony  Harris,  KA 
president. 

The  fraternity  sponsored  their  annual 
KA  Fight  Night  to  raise  money  for  the 
Muscular  Dystrophy  Association.  The 
members  of  Kappa  Alpha  are  involved 


in  various  campus  organizations  and 
community  activities.  "By  nature  we  do 
not  submit  to  mediocrity  but  strive  to 
excel  in  leadership,  honor  and 
brotherhood,"  Harris  said. 

KA  colors  are  crimson  and  old  gold 
and  their  flowers  are  the  magnolia 
blossom  and  the  crimson  rose.  Their 
traditional  Old  South  Ball,  which  in- 
cludes a  week  full  of  activities,  was  held 
in  the  Spring.

Lambda  Chi's  generate  enthusiasm  and  spirit 


The  main  purpose  of  the  Lambda  Chi 
Alpha  social  fraternity  is  to  establish  a 
close  affiliation  and  brotherhood  be- 
tween each  member,  to  offer  an  oppor- 
tunity for  close  friendship  and  to  teach 
its  members  leadership  through  ex- 
perience of  working  with  others  on  com- 
mon goals  and  projects. 

Some  of  the  projects  that  the  Lambda 


Chi  brothers  worked  together  on  this 
year  were  the  annual  Toga  and  Hallo- 
ween parties,  to  raise  money  for  the 
United  Way,  and  a  Bike-A-Thon  with  the 
Chi  Omega's  to  raise  money  for  the 
Nacogdoches  Children's  Foster  Home. 

Campus  activities  and  organizations

Phi  Delta  Theta  raises  money  for  statue 


Phi  Delta  Theta  emphasizes  three  car- 
dinal principles:  friendship,  sound  learn- 
ing and  moral  rectitude.  Based  on  these 
ideals,  Phi  Delta  Theta  has  grown  to 
over  150  campuses  in  43  states  and  6 
Canadian  provinces. 

Phi  Delta  Theta  was  founded  at  SFA 
in  1962.  The  fraternity  brothers  strive  to 


strengthen  their  brotherhood  internally 
and  on  campus. 

Their  colors  are  azure  and  argent  and 
their  flower  is  the  white  carnation. 

The  Phi  Delts  participated  in  many 
campus  activities  including  the  Alpha 
Tau  Omega  —  Phi  Delta  Theta  Bash  to 
raise  money  for  the  SFA  statue  fund. 


They  also  sponsored  a  football  run  to 
raise  money  for  their  philanthropy,  Lou 
Gehrig's  Disease. 

In  December  the  members  of  the  Phi 
Delta  Theta  attended  the  annual 
Christmas  Ball  and  in  the  spring  they 
celebrated  Founder's  Day.

Sigma  Chi  strives  to  be  good  as  gold 


The  purpose  of  the  Sigma  Chi  social 
fraternity  is  to  enhance  brotherhood, 
supporting  one's  own  personal  goals 
and  giving  every  member  a  place  to 
meet  with  friends  in  fellowship. 

The  fraternity's  colors  are  blue  and 
old  gold  and  their  flower  is  the  white 
rose.  The  SFA  chapter  was  founded  in 
April  of  1975. 

Sigma    Chi    is    the    largest  and 


wealthiest  international  fraternity,  and  it 
is  second  in  overall  membership.  Sigma 
Chi's  most  important  activity  is  Derby 
Week. 

Derby  Week  is  a  week  of  events  in 
which  the  six  sororities  compete 
against  each  other  in  various  activities. 
The  money  raised  from  the  event  is 
donated  to  the  Sigma  Chi  national 
philanthropy,    Wallace    Village  for 


Children. 

The  SFA  chapter  received  two  na- 
tional awards  this  year,  the  Peterson 
Significant  Chapter  Award  and  the 
Legion  of  Honor  Scholarship  Award. 
Mike  Eldridge  also  received  the  Life 
Loyal  Sig  Award. 

The  brothers  of  Sigma  Chi  attended 
the  annual  "Sweetheart"  formal  in  the 
Spring.

Sigma  Kappa  -  A  family  away  from  home 


"Sigma  Kappa  has  a  great  respect  for 
the  individual  and  has  held  pride  in  the 
fact  that  we  do  not  have  a  stereotyped 
nor  molded  membership,"  Lana 
Shockley,  president,  said.  "Sigma  Kap- 
pa has  gained  its  strength  through  this 
interaction  of  individuals,  each  respec- 
ting and  caring  for  the  other,  yet  united 
in  a  common  bond  of  sisterhood." 

Founded  in  1960,  Sigma  Kappa  was 
the  first  national  sorority  on  the  SFA 


campus.  The  sorority's  colors  are 
lavender  and  maroon  and  its  flower  is 
the  violet.  They  have  an  open  motto 
which  reads,  "One  Heart  One  Way." 

The  Sigma  Kappa  sisters  participated 
in  several  philanthropic  projects  to  help 
gerontology  research,  Alzheimer's 
disease  and  the  Maine  Sea  Coast  Mis- 
sion. The  major  fund-raiser  was  their  an- 
nual Sexy  Leggs  contest  in  the  Spring. 

Sigma  Kappa  members  are  also  very 


active  in  other  aspects  of  campus  life. 
Members  are  involved  in  Order  of 
Omega,  Pom  Pon  squad,  CIC  programs, 
AMA,  honor  societies  and  various  other 
campus  organizations. 

"I  pledged  Sigma  Kappa  because  it 
offers  true  friendships  that  will  last  a 
lifetime,"  Sherry  Krantz  said.  "I'm  pro- 
ud to  be  a  Sigma  Kappa  because  Sigma 
Kappa  is  what  a  sorority  is  all  about  — 
a  family  away  from  home."

Sig  Tqus  build  leadership  and  brotherhood 


"Sigma  Tau  Gamma  is  a  melting  pot; 
a  group  of  guys  who  all  fit  together  with 
a  special  bond,"  Tom  Martin  said. 
Because  of  this  bond,  the  SFA  chapter 
of  Sigma  Tau  Gamma  is  one  of  13 
chapters  in  the  nation  to  receive  a 
"AAA"  rating.  This  is  the  highest  rating 
a  chapter  can  receive. 


Sigma  Tau  Gamma  was  founded  at 
SFA  in  1970.  The  fraternity's  colors  are 
blue  and  silver,  and  their  flower  is  the 
white  rose. 

The  Sig  Taus  participated  in  Greek 
Week,  intramurals  and  Homecoming  ac- 
tivities. The  chapter  worked  with  the 
Oak  Manor  Nursing  Home  and  raised 


money  for  the  March  of  Dimes. 

"Sigma  Tau  Gamma  is  building 
leadership  for  tomorrow  through 
brotherhood,"  said  Todd  Norwood, 
president.

Tqu  Kappa  Epsilon  boasts  largest  membership 


Tau  Kappa  Epsilon's  ideals  are  chari-

three  ideals,  the  TKEs  are  the  largest  in- 
ternational fraternity  and  they  strive  to 
become  number  one  both  locally  and 
nationally. 

This  year  began  a  new  TKE  tradition. 
They  sponsored  the  first  annual  Teke 


Greek  Fall  Festival  in  December.  The 
festival  was  a  fundraiser  not  only  for  the 
TKE  fraternity  but  also  for  the  Greek 
organizations  that  participated.  The 
money  that  the  Tekes  raised  from  the 
festival  and  other  various  fundraisers 
went  to  their  philanthropy,  St.  Jude's 
Children's  Research  Hospital. 


The  fraternity  participated  in  other 
charitable,  social,  recreational  and 
scholastic  activities. 

TKE  colors  are  cherry  red  and  gray 
and  their  flower  is  the  red  carnation.

Strong  friendships  grow  in  Zeto  Tqu  Alpha 


"The  purpose  of  Zeta  Tau  Alpha  is  to 
build  lasting  friendships  that  will  last 
beyond  our  college  years,"  said  Susan 
Denton,  ZTA  pledge  trainer.  "Zeta  has  a 
strong  bond  that  extends  deeper  than 
just  having  friends." 

Zeta  Tau  Alpha  was  founded  at  SFA 
on  March  19,  1977.  "Although  Zeta  is 
the  youngest  sorority  at  SFA,  in  the 
past  two  and  a  half  years  that  I've  been 


involved  with  the  group,  I've  seen  it 
steadily  grow  larger  and  stronger.  We're 
one  of  the  largest  sororities  nationally 
and  I  think  we're  at  the  top  here,"  Den- 
ton said. 

In  addition  to  sisterhood,  Zetas  par- 
ticipated in  many  campus  activities 
such  as  Sigma  Chi  Derby  Week,  Greek 
Week,  Homecoming  and  Parents 
Weekend.     Its    members    have  a 


Christmas  Bazaar  every  year  to  raise 
money  for  the  Association  of  Retarded 
Citizens.  Zetas  are  also  actively  in- 
volved in  many  organizations  on 
campus. 

The  sorority  purchased  land  and 
began  work  on  the  plans  for  the  future 
ZTA  house.  The  Zetas  are  really  excited 
about  the  future  of  the  chapter  at  SFA.

Jacks  create  winning  season  series 


The  SFA  football  team  began  a  new 
era  in  NCAA  Division  l-AA  on  Sept.  1 
with  a  17-10  win  over  the  Statesmen  of 
Delta  State  University.  After  a  scoreless 
first  half,  the  Lumberjack  offense  drove 
69  yards  on  seven  plays,  the  last  being 
a  20-yard  touchdown  pass  from  Dallas 
sophomore  Todd  Whitten  to  Jackson- 
ville junior  James  Noble.  Rick  Wilson, 
DeSoto  junior,  kicked  the  extra  point. 

The  Statesmen  took  advantage  of 
two  SFA  fumbles  to  tie  the  score,  then 
moved  ahead  10-7  with  a  field  goal.  The 
Jacks  came  back  to  take  the  lead  for 
good,  moving  the  ball  72  yards  in  five 
plays  for  a  touchdown.  Wilson's  kick 


was  good,  and  the  Jacks  took  a  14-10 
lead.  The  Jacks  scored  again  on  a 
Wilson  field  goal,  making  the  final  score 
17-10,  SFA. 

The  Prairie  View  A&M  Panthers  were 
next  for  SFA,  and  the  Jacks  downed 
them  43-14. 

Keith  Thacker,  Alto  Sophomore,  had 
120  yards  on  nine  carries  for  one 
touchdown.  Floyd  Dixon,  Beaumont 
junior,  caught  five  passes  for  123  yards 
and  two  touchdowns  as  the  SFA  of- 
fense rolled  up  486  yards  against  the 
Panthers,  while  the  SFA  defense  held 
the  Panthers  to  196  yards.  Quarterback 


Todd  Whitten  enjoyed  a  good  game, 
completing  nine  of  14  passes  for  189 
yards  and  two  touchdowns. 

Playing  in  the  first  ever  Gulf  Star  Con- 
ference game,  the  Jacks  suffered  nine 
turnovers  and  lost  20-7  to  the  Sam 
Houston  State  University  Bearkats. 
Despite  the  turnovers,  the  SFA  defense 
played  well. 

"I  thought  our  defense  played  well 
despite  being  put  into  some  difficult 
situations,"  Coach  Jim  Hess  said. 

SFA's  lone  touchdown  came  on  a  45- 
yard  pass  from  Todd  Whitten  to  James 
Noble  in  the  third  quarter.

The  SFA-Texas  A&l  game  in 
Nacogdoches  would  be  the  first  of  three 
games  the  Jacks  would  play  against 
former  Lone  Star  Conference  foes.  The 
Jacks  met  the  challenge,  winning  17  0. 
The  SFA  defense  enjoyed  a  stellar  per- 
formance, allowing  the  Javelinas  only 
57  yards  passing  and  82  yards  rushing. 
The  Lumberjack  offensive  line,  led  by 
guard  Scott  Alexander,  Conroe  senior, 
and  tackle  Stewart  Speer,  Waco  senior, 
provided  protection  for  Whitten  as  he 
threw  a  39-yard  touchdown  pass  to  No- 
ble in  the  first  half. 

Whitten  later  scored  on  a  one-yard 
run.  Rick  Wilson,  DeSoto  junior,  kicked 


both  extra  points  and  a  24-yard  field 
goal. 

The  Jacks  improved  their  record  to 
4-1  with  a  37-21  victory  over  Abilene 
Christian  University  in  Abilene.  The 
Jacks  had  not  beaten  the  Wildcats  since 
1980. 

Two  school  records  were  set  in  this 
game.  Rick  Wilson  kicked  a  51-yard 
field  goal,  breaking  Mark  Moseley's  15- 
year-old  record.  Punter  Andy  Gamble, 
Cushing  senior,  broke  his  own  record  of 
68  yards  with  a  73-yard  punt. 

SFA  won  its  third  straight  game  with 
a  27-13  victory  over  the  University  of 
Texas  at  Arlington  in  Arlington.  A  24- 


point  underdog  going  into  the  game, 
SFA  jumped  out  to  a  14-3  first  quarter 
lead  behind  two  touchdown  passes  by 
Todd  Whitten  to  James  Noble  and 
Floyd  Dixon. 

After  both  teams  traded  field  goals  in 
the  second  quarter,  SFA  scored  10 
points  in  the  third  period  on  a 
touchdown  run  by  Whitten  and  a  field 
goal  by  Rick  Wilson.  SFA's  defense  held 
GTA  to  only  two  field  goals  until  the  last 
minute  of  the  game,  when  the 
Mavericks  completed  a  nine-yard 
touchdown  pass.

Nicholls  State  Colonel  rains  on  SFA 


After  the  Jacks  crushed  the  Howard  Payne  University 
Yellow  Jackets  38-0  before  a  rain-soaked  Parents  Day  crowd, 
SFA  prepared  to  celebrate  its  55th  Homecoming  game  against 
the  Colonels  of  Nicholls  State  University. 

After  an  early  SFA  touchdown,  Nicholls  State  capped  a 
seven-play,  52  yard  drive  with  a  24-yard  field  goal.  NSCI  later 
scored  a  touchdown  to  make  the  score  10-7,  NSG  at  the  end  of 
the  half. 

When  the  halftime  festivities  ended  and  the  rain  began,  NSCI 
took  advantage  of  an  SFA  fumble  and  went  ahead  13-7  on  a 
25-yard  field  goal. 

After  an  exchange  of  fumbles  and  punts,  the  Colonels 


scored  again  on  a  13-yard  touchdown  pass.  The  Colonels 
scored  again  on  a  17-yard  touchdown  run.  The  two  point  con- 
version was  good,  and  NSG  led  by  22  points.  The  Jacks  made 
a  game  of  it  in  the  final  minute.  They  moved  58  yards  in  five 
plays  and  scored  on  a  two-yard  pass  from  quarterback  Todd 
Whitten  to  James  Noble  with  eight  seconds  left  in  the  game. 
SFA  recovered  the  ensuing  onside  kickoff,  and  on  the  last  play 
of  the  game  scored  on  a  30-yard  pass  from  Whitten  to  Noble 
once  more.  The  final  score  was  NSG  25,  SFA  21. 

The  Jacks  had  a  winning  record  at  6-2,  but  both  losses  were 
to  Gulf  Star  Conference  opponents.

Jacks  finish  winning  season,  7-3-1 


After  the  Homecoming  loss,  the 
Jacks  traveled  to  Hammond,  La.,  to 
face  the  Southeastern  Louisiana  Univer- 
sity Lions.  The  contest  saw  the  Lions 
take  a  14-0  lead  in  the  first  half.  SLCI 
scored  on  a  55-yard  touchdown  run,  and 
SFA  quarterback  Todd  Whitten  threw 
an  interception  that  was  returned  31 
yards  for  SLCI's  second  score. 

After  the  Lions  scored  a  third 
touchdown  to  start  the  second  half, 
SFA  started  its  comeback  with  a  16- 
play,  86-yard  drive,  scoring  on  a  three- 
yard  run  by  Whitten.  SLU  led  SFA  21-7 
at  the  end  of  the  third  quarter,  but  SFA 
refused  to  quit,  scoring  on  a  two-yard 
run  by  Keith  Thacker. 

The  Jacks  scored  again  on  a  43-yard 
pass  from  Whitten  to  Floyd  Dixon.  Rick 
Wilson  kicked  the  extra  point  and  the 
score  was  21-21  with  4:48  left  in  the 
game.  Neither  team  scored  again,  and 
the  tie  left  the  Jacks  with  a  6-2-1  record. 

"A  tie  is  not  as  good  as  a  win,  but  it 


does  feel  better  than  a  loss,"  Coach  Jim 
Hess  said  after  the  game. 

The  Jacks'  next  game  was  against 
Southwest  Texas  State  University  in 
San  Marcos.  A  packed  house  of  14,057 
watched  the  Bobcats  avenge  their  27-24 
loss  of  1983,  as  SWT  defeated  the 
Jacks  24-7. 

SFA's  lone  score  came  in  the  fourth 
quarter  when  Victor  Brook,  Durant, 
Okla.,  senior,  recovered  a  fumbled  punt 
in  the  end  zone.  The  loss  to  SWT  left 
the  Jacks  with  an  0-3-1  record  in  Gulf 
Star  Conference  play. 

After  an  open  date,  the  Jacks  renew- 
ed their  annual  battle  for  Chief  Caddo 
with  Northwestern  State  University  of 
Louisiana.  Twenty  SFA  seniors  would 
be  playing  in  their  final  game,  and  they 
wanted  to  finish  on  a  winning  note. 

The  Jacks  scored  in  the  second 
period  when  Andrew  Ray,  Houston 
Junior,  recovered  a  LeBlanc  fumble  and 
ran  67  yards  for  a  touchdown.  The 


Jacks  got  a  two-point  conversion  when 
Whitten  passed  to  Michael  LeBlanc. 

SFA  scored  again  in  the  third  quarter 
when  Whitten  found  Dixon  in  the  end 
zone  for  a  six-yard  touchdown  pass.  The 
Demons  led,  18-15,  late  in  the  third 
period  when  Whitten  threw  a  50-yard 
touchdown  pass  to  James  Noble. 

The  touchdown  gave  SFA  a  four- 
point  lead,  but  the  Demons  threatened 
with  less  than  a  minute  left  in  the  game. 
The  defense,  led  by  the  "Purple  Rain" 
secondary  of  Darrell  Harkless,  Anthony 
Newsome,  Kevin  Polk  and  Kevin 
Jackson,  held  their  ground;  SFA 
escaped  with  a  22-18  victory  and  Chief 
Caddo. 

The  Jacks  finished  at  7-3-1  overall, 
with  a  record  of  1-3-1  in  Gulf  Star  Con- 
ference play.  However,  that  one  con- 
ference win  was  over  the  conference 
champion.

Ladyjacks  improve  previous  record 


Despite  an  overall  record  of  17-19  and 
a  fourth  place  finish  in  the  newly  form- 
ed Gulf  Star  Conference,  Cheri  Burns, 
head  volleyball  coach  at  SFA  was 
pleased  with  the  way  things  went  this 
season. 

"I  think  it  is  just  a  reflection  on  how 
young  we  are,"  Burns  said  of  the  record 
and  conference  finish. 

SFA  closed  out  the  season  in  San 
Marcos  at  the  Gulf  Star  Conference 
Championships  after  playing  a  schedule 


that  included  16  NCAA  Division  I 
opponents. 

All  the  players  will  be  returning  next 
season,  and  they,  combined  with  a 
recruiting  class  and  junior  college 
transfers,  will  form  what  Burns  hopes 
will  be  a  winning  combination. 

"It's  a  plus  to  the  system  or  the  pro- 
gram," Burns  said  about  having  all  the 
players  back  next  season.  "Any  time 
you  have  that,  the  kids  are  going  to  be 


used  to  the  system. 

"The  game  of  volleyball  is  based  on 
cohesiveness.  The  longer  you  play 
together,  the  better  you  will  play.  I  think 
we  improved  all  the  way  around  as  the 
season  went  along.  Our  defense  and  our 
passing  are  what  I  would  say  we  im- 
proved the  most  on. 

"Overall,  I  was  pleased  with  the  year. 
This  is  a  new  program. ..we  had  eight 
new  girls,"  Burns  said.

Both  the  Lumberjack  and  Lady- 
jack  cross  country  teams  enjoyed 
fine  seasons,  with  the  Lumberjack 
team  taking  the  first  ever  Gulf  Star 
Conference  Cross  Country  title  on 
Nov.  1,  1984  at  the  SFA  Expermen- 
tal  Forest. 

The  Jacks'  championship  effort 
was  led  by  Chris  Bloor,  Sheffield, 
England  junior,  as  he  finished  in  first 
place  to  claim  the  individual  con- 
ference title.  Bloor,  who  had  a  time 
of  31:38,  was  followed  by  San  An- 
tonio junior  Rick  Gardner,  who 
posted  a  time  of  33:06.  In  addition, 
Bernie  Sill,  Round  Rock  sophomore, 
and  Victor  Cordova,  Pleasanton 
sophomore,  finished  with  times  of 
33:33  and  33:46,  respectively.  Both 
Sill  and  Corcova  finished  in  the  top 
seven,  thus  making  the  GSC  All- 
Conference  Team  along  with  Bloor 
and  Gardner. 

The  Ladyjacks  finished  in  second 
place  after  Southwest  Texas  State 
University  in  the  women's  meet. 
SWT,  SFA,  and  Northwestern  State 
University  were  the  only  three  teams 
participating  in  the  meet,  as 
women's  cross  country  has  not  been 
sanctioned  by  the  GSC  yet.  The 
Ladies  won  the  SFA  Cross  Country 
Invitational  on  Oct.  6,  1984,  with 
Kim  Abshire,  Kingwood  senior,  and 
Anna  Rodriguez,  Houston 
sophomore,  finishing  first  and  se- 
cond with  time  of  17:49  and  17:51, 
respectively.

Jacks  2nd  in  GSC 


After  winning  two  Lone  Star  Conference  Championships  in 
the  last  three  seasons,  the  Lumberjacks  had  another  winning 
season  in  their  first  year  in  the  newly  formed  Gulf  Star 
Conference. 

"This  is  an  exciting  time  for  Lumberjack  basketball,"  Head 
Coach  Harry  E.  Miller  said  in  his  31st  inter  collegiate  season. 
"We  may  have  the  best  talent  we  have  had  at  SFA  over  the 
past  six  years." 

The  Jacks  started  the  season  slowly,  losing  their  first  two 
games  on  the  road  against  Texas  A&M,  79-64,  and  Oklahoma 
State  University,  71-53.  But  they  bounced  back  to  win  their 
next  13  of  15,  including  six  in  a  row,  before  losing  to  Mississip- 
pi College  in  Clinton,  Mississippi. 

The  most  important  game  of  the  season  was  against  their 
arch-rival  Sam  Houston  —  the  137th  meeting  between  the  two 
teams.  Both  teams  needed  a  victory  to  remain  in  contention  for 
the  conference  title.  The  Jacks  won  67-65  as  Sam  Houston's 
tying  shot  fell  short  as  time  ran  out.  "The  key  to  the  ballgame 
was  the  crowd,"  starting  forward  Kevin  Hurly  said.  "They're 
like  a  sixth  man  on  the  floor." 

Hurly,  Diboll  sophomore,  was  one  of  two  returning  starters 
from  last  year's  team;  forward  Doug  George,  Houston,  senior 
was  the  other. 

Forward  guard  John  Mouton,  Beaumont  junior,  led  the  team 
both  in  scoring,  averaging  almost  15  points  a  game,  and  in  re- 
bounding with  seven  a  game.  Mouton  transferred  this  year 
from  Angelina  College.

The  Lumberjack  track  team  was 
favored  to  win  the  outdoor  conference 
championship  after  a  surprise  victory  in 
the  Gulf  Star  Conference  Indoor  Track 
and  Field  Championship  in  February. 

The  Jacks'  cross  country  team  in 
November  won  the  cross  country  cham- 
pionship, led  by  Chris  Bloor,  Sheffield, 
England,  senior,  who  was  named  the 
meet's  Most  Valuable  Athlete  (MVA). 
Bloor  also  won  the  MBA  award  at  the 
Gulf    Star    Indoor    Track    and  Field 


Championship. 

Two  players  who  qualified  for  the 
NCAA  Division  II  National  Indoor  Cham- 
pionships led  the  Jacks'  outdoor  track 
team  with  Bloor.  Long  jumper  Lorjust 
Bayne,  Palestine  junior,  and  shot  putter 
G.  F.  Watkins,  Humble  senior,  are  both 
considered  among  the  10  best  athletes 
in  the  nation  in  their  respective  events 
in  NCAA  Division  II. 

The  Jacks  are  in  a  transition  stage 


from  Division  II  to  Division  I  in  the 
NCAA.  They  are  still  a  Division  II  team, 
but  in  a  Division  I  conference.  Coach 
Glen  Sefcik  said  he  is  "pleased  to  be 
able  to  compete  in  a  Division  I  con- 
ference and  still  be  a  Division  II  team." 

"When  we  change  over  to  Division  I 
I'll  be  quite  pleased  with  the  results,"  he 
said.  "Division  I  will  give  us  a  better 
budget  and  more  scholarships."

Sellers  set  goals  for  small  squad 


Coach  Catherine  Sellers,  after  nine 
years  of  coaching  at  Pasedena  Sam 
Rayburn,  began  her  first  year  as  the 
Ladyjack  track  coach. 

"Coaching  at  SFA  is  a  challenging  ex- 
perience," Sellers  said.  "The  SFA 
women's  athletic  program  has  fame  — 
they  supported  women  through  the 
dark  ages  and  are  committed  to  it.  In  a 
lot  of  places  when  the  budget  is  tight 
the  women  are  the  first  to  go." 

Sellers  said  the  goal  this  year  is  to 
qualify  in  as  many  events  as  possible  in 
the  NCAA  Division  II  nationals  on  May 


19-25  in  Los  Angeles. 

Last  year's  team  had  six  events 
qualify  for  the  nationals.  These  were  the 
400-meter  relay  team  (which  placed 
fourth),  the  1600-meter  relay,  the  high 
jump,  the  javelin,  the  100-meter  spring 
and  the  triple  jump. 

Three  girls  who  qualified  for  last 
year's  nationals  have  returned  to  this 
year's  team  —  Darin  James,  Easton 
sophomore,  ran  the  400-meter  and  1600 
-meter  relays;  Sonja  Fields  ran  the  400 
-meter  relay;  Lisa  Levering  ran  in  the 
1600-meter  and  400-meter  relays. 


"We  have  quite  a  bit  of  talent  but  not 
much  depth,"  Sellers  said  of  her  16 
athletes.  "We'll  place  well  —  we'll  have 
to  spread  our  players  out." 

The  Ladies  had  10  events  scheduled 
this  spring  including  the  Paper  Tiger 
Relays  in  Baton  Rouge,  La.,  the  Bayou 
Classic  in  Houston;  the  Texas  Relays  in 
Austin;  and  the  Baylor  Invitational  in 
Waco.  They  closed  out  their  schedule 
with  the  NCAA  Division  II  Nationals  in' 
Los  Angeles.

Team  strong,  faces  tough  schedule 


Finishing  the  1984  season  with  a  34- 
18  record,  the  Lumberjack  baseball 
team  came  off  its  most  successful 
season  in  recent  history. 

Coach  Darwin  Crawford  has 
established  a  record  of  148  109  in  his 
seven  years  as  the  Jacks'  head  coach. 
He  said  this  team  is  the  best  he  has  seen 
since  he's  been  head  coach.  "We're  bet- 
ter than  last  year  but  we  have  a  tougher 
schedule.  Our  strength  is  pitching  and 
defense,"  Crawford  said. 

The  Jacks  started  the  season  slowly, 
losing  five  of  the  first  six  games.  The 
Jacks  were  expected  to  make  a  run  at 


being  the  first  champions  of  the  newly 
formed  Gulf  Star  Conference. 

Eleven  lettermen  returned  to  this 
year's  line-up,  including  first  baseman 
Brian  Corriston,  Newton,  Pa.  senior.  He 
started  this  season  where  he  left  off  last 
year,  with  a  .381  batting  average  —  up 
from  last  season's  .359  average. 

Pitchers  Kenny  Chaplain,  Longview 
senior,  and  Allain  Griffen,  Allen  junior, 
also  returned  from  the  '84  squad. 
Chaplain  posted  a  6-1  record  and  a  2.20 
earned  run  average  (ERA).  Griffen  had 
the  team's  best  record  with  an  8-1  mark 
last  season  and  a  2.24  ERA. 


The  Jacks,  an  NCAA  Division  II 
team,  played  80  per  cent  Division  I  op- 
ponents and  were  in  a  Division  I  con- 
ference. SFA  has  chosen  to  wait  two 
years  for  their  teams  to  transfer  from 
Division  II  to  Division  I  play. 

The  Jacks  had  65  games  scheduled. 
Among  some  of  the  places  to  which 
they  will  travel  are  Shreveport,  La.; 
Maguolio,  Ark.;  and  Ruston,  La. 

The  NCAA  Division  II  championships 
will  be  May  25-29  in  Montgomery,  Ala.

The  Lumberjack  golf  team,  ranked 
fifth  in  the  nation  in  NCAA  Division  II, 
opened  the  spring  schedule  after 
posting  its  most  successful  fall  season, 
winning  three  out  of  five  tournaments. 

Third  year  coach  Clyde  Alexander 
was  pleased  with  his  team's  fall  perfor- 
mance and  has  high  expectations  for 
the  spring  tournaments. 

"We  need  five  players  to  consistently 
shoot  good  rounds  every  time.  If  you're 
consistent  you'll  win,"  he  said.

The  team's  goal  was  to  qualify  for  the 
national  championships,  Coach  Alex- 
ander said.  "If  we  win  a  couple  of  tour- 
naments we'll  have  a  good  chance  for 
the  national  tournament." 

The  Jacks  started  the  season  off  with 
a  fourth  place  finish  at  the  Crown  Col- 
ony Intercollegiate  Invitational  Golf

The  Jacks  had  eight  tournaments 
this  year.  They  hosted  three  and  trav- 
eled to  Sam  Houston  twice. 

Jimmy  Squires  and  Joe  Golden  had

choice  of  participating  in  the  SFA  Wind 
Ensemble  or  the  SFA  Pep  Band.  The 


Pep  Band,  known  as  "The  Roarin'  Buzz- 
saws,"  performed  at  basketball  games 
and  pep  rallies. 

The  top  musicians  from  the  music 
department  were  chosen  for  the  SFA 
Symphonic  Band  which  performed  dur- 
ing the  Spring  Semester.  The  band  per- 
formed campus  concerts  and  for

The  Biology  Club  offered  students 
an  opportunity  to  enjoy  biology  ac- 
tivities outside  the  classroom  and 
laboratory. 

Members  of  the  organization  took 
field  trips  to  places  of  biological  in- 
terest such  as  Lufkin  Industries  and

Episcopalians  encourage  fellowship 


"The  Canterbury  Association  is  an 
Episcopal  college  ministry  which  seeks 
to  encourage  student  fellowship  as  an 
important  basis  for  meeting  life's 
demanding  challenges,"  Kristen 
Carlson,  senior  assistant  to  the 
chaplain,  said. 

The  70-member  group  planned  two 
fall  retreats;  the  annual  Bolivar  Pennin- 
sula  Retreat,  near  Galveston,  and  the 
Vocare  Retreat  were  scheduled  in  Oc- 
tober. The  Vocare  Retreat  "helps 
students  find  their  vocation  in  life," 


sponsor  Dr.  Joy  B.  Reeves  said. 

Approximately  40  Canterbury 
members  were  involved  in  the  Outreach 
Program  which  included  visits  to  the 
Lufkin  State  School  and  participation  in 
the  Big  Brother/Sister  and  Adopt-a- 
Grandparent  programs. 

Residents  of  the  Timberlane  Nursing 
Center  were  adopted  as  grandparents

said  this  project  was  one  of  the  most 
popular  ones.

Choral  group 
gains  members, 
vocalizes 


Although  he  is  quick  to  share 
credit  with  others  for  the  growth  of 
SFA  choirs  over  the  past  year,  Tim 
King,  choral  director,  has  been  a  ma- 
jor factor  in  the  almost  tripled  size  of 
the  choral  union  to  85  members  and 
in  the  growth  of  the  choir  from  39  to 
53  members.  When  King  came  to  the 
University  last  fall,  he  had  one  major 
objective  in  mind  —  to  bring  to  as 
many  people  as  possible  the  same 
joys  he  has  experienced  in  the  field 
of  music. 

Although  he  is  proud  of  his  im- 
pressive list  of  awards,  it  is  not  what 


he  considers  most  important.  He 
strives  to  interpret  each  piece  of 
music  as  expressively  and  artistical- 
ly as  the  composer  would  have 
desired. 

"Music  is  an  art,  and  a  recreative 
form  of  art.  I'm  the  person  that  has 
to  interpret  what's  on  the  page.  I 
have  a  conscientious  approach  to 
the  art.  It's  a  great  responsibility,"  he 
said. 

"I've  always  been  of  the  opinion 
that  if  you  recreate  the  art,  the 
awards  and  all  the  rest  will  come," 
he  said.  —  Ken  Koehn

organizations,    honor    societies,    fraternities  and 


sororities,  religious  and  academic  organizations. 

The  (JC  Programs  brochure  says  students  should 
join  a  committee  to  use  their  spare  time  in  a  useful 
way,  to  make  the  most  of  their  college  experience  and 
to  develop  personally  as  well  as  intellectually.  Involve- 
ment with  students  organizations  helps  students  feel 
more  "at  home"  while  at  SFA  which  makes  it  easier  to 
adjust  to  college  life,  according  to  the  brochure.

Grad  advocates  timber  management 


By  Terry  Driskell 

Martin  Shupe,  forestry  graduate  stu- 
dent, is  concerned  about  preserving 
natural  surroundings.  He's  deeply  in- 
terested in  preserving  the  SFA  campus 
forest  and  in  restoring  plant  life  on  the 
Martin  Lake  strip  mine  field  near 
Carthage  in  Beckville. 

Shupe  is  working  on  his  master's 
degree  in  forestry  with  an  emphasis  in 
reclamation.  "Reclamation,  defined,  is 
taking  a  piece  of  disturbed  land  and 
replacing  the  vegetation,"  he  said. 

Shupe  is  working  on  a  fertilizer  study 
aided  by  a  grant  from  the  Texas  Utilities 
Co.  The  project  involves  finding  which 
type  of  fertilizer  works  best  to  help  two- 
year-old  loblolly  pine  trees  mature. 

Shupe  produced  15  different  com- 
binations of  fertilizer  by  mixing  3  parts 
phosphorous  and  5  parts  nitrogen. 

Last  spring  he  measured  the  trees 
planted  on  10-acre  plots  in  Beckville; 
then  he  applied  fertilizer.  This  fall  he 
made  a  second  measurement  to  deter- 
mine which  fertilizer  worked  best. 


Shupe  took  pine  needle  samples  from 
each  tree.  "By  looking  at  the  color  of 
the  needle  you  can  tell  how  much  fer- 
tilizer got  into  the  tree,"  he  said.  Eight- 
hundred  fifty  paper  sacks  containing 
the  samples  fill  a  large  shelf  in  a 
bookcase  in  his  office. 

The  graduate  student  is  also  working 
on  a  master  of  business  administration 
degree.  Upon  completion  of  his  degrees, 
Shupe  would  like  to  go  to  Alaska. 

"My  main  area  of  interest  is  in  timber 
management.  1  feel  I  can  make  good 
decisions  for  the  company  I  work  for, 
which  is  where  getting  my  MBA  comes 
in." 

"I  also  like  fighting  (preventing)  forest 
fires.  In  Alaska  they  have  a  lot  of  fire 
problems. 

"Reclamation  in  the  Antarctic  is  also 
very  challenging  because  of  the  dif- 
ferent types  of  plant  species  there." 

Another  concern  of  Shupe  is  the  loss 
of  trees  that  make  our  campus  so 


beautiful. 

A  main  problem,  he  said,  is  not  in  los- 
ing the  old  trees;  it's  planting  new  ones. 
Shupe  wrote  a  paper  in  December, 
1983,  suggesting  that  a  campus  forest 
management  plan  be  implemented.  The 
purpose  of  the  study,  he  wrote,  is  to 
make  people  aware  of  the  prbolem  and 
to  offer  suggestions  on  how  to  "provide 
for  beauty  on  down  the  road."  He  hopes 
his  ideas  will  be  reviewed,  improved 
upon  and  presented  to  President 
William  R.  Johnson. 

Shupe  believes  that  in  15  to  20  years 
most  of  the  trees  on  campus  will  be 
gone  unless  action  is  taken  to  plant  new 
ones  and  save  those  damaged  by  man 
and  nature. 

"In  the  '70s  a  survey  was  taken  that 
asked  why  students  came  here.  They 
said  it  was  because  of  the  trees,  the 
beauty  of  the  campus.  I'd  like  to  come 
back  for  Homecoming  sometime  and 
still  see  some  trees,"  he  said.

Crouched  down  behind  some  bushes, 
lying  in  wait  for  them  to  come,  he  con- 
templated the  odds  of  getting  out  of  the 
woods  alive.  He  and  14  others  were  fac- 
ing a  45-member  aggressive  force. 

A  small  group  of  cautious  aggressors 
moved  toward  his  hiding  place  —  closer 
and   closer.   He  jumped   up.  "Bang! 


You're  all  dead!"  he  yelled  and  pointed 
his  instrument  of  death  —  a  meager 
stick  —  at  each  surprised  soldier. 

This  was  the  first  war  game  battle 
Doug  Walker,  computer  science 
graduate  assistant,  participated  in.  Play- 
ing war  games  is  what  Doug  does  to 
relax  after  a  tough  day  of  teaching. 

Doug's  interest  in  war  games  began 
when  he  started  playing  "Dungeons  and 
Dragons." 

"I  always  wanted  to  play  it,  but  I 
never  had  anyone  to  play  with,"  he 
said.  He  became  more  interested  in  the 
game  and  others  as  well,  when  he 
moved  in  with  two  avid  war  game 
players.  They  played  the  board  game 
and  participated  in  "real"  war  game  ex- 
ercises with  SFA's  military  science 
class  on  two  occasions. 

Doug's  friend  and  former  roommate, 
Jeff  Bales,  said  war  games  "can  be 
played  at  whatever  level  of  realism  you 
want." 

Board  games  such  as  "Denn 
Kemph,"  teach  the  player  the  military 
theoretical  techniques  of  war  or  how 
not  to  fight. 

"Dungeons  and  Dragons"  involves 
role  playing.  Players  take  on  the  per- 
sonality of  a  game  character  —  maybe 
a  witch  or  wizard. 

Traveler,  a  favorite  of  Doug's,  in- 
volves space  technology  rather  than  the 


magic  in  "D  and  D." 

These  games  are  much  less  realistic 
than  facing  the  military  science  class  in 
the  East  Texas  woods.  In  Doug's  se- 
cond battle,  participants  were  armed 
with  real  live  M-16s  —  loaded  with 
blanks,  of  course. 

Playing  a  war  game  outside  is  ob- 
viously all  lot  different  than  moving 
game  pieces  across  a  paper  board. 

A  "Traveler"  game,  according  to 
Doug,  involves  traveling  the  galaxy 
from  planet  to  planet.  The  playing  time 
interval  is  very  flexible. 

"One  planet  may  take  three  or  four 
hours  to  play.  One  turn  can  take  two 
seconds  to  five  minutes.  You  have  time 
to  think  about  your  strategy  on  the 
board." 

In  a  combat  war  game,  "You  have 
two  seconds  (or  less)  to  decide"  your 
turn  and  your  fate. 

The  War  Games  Club,  that  Doug  par- 
ticipated with  and  that  sparred  with  the 
military  science  class,  is  now  defunct 
due  to  lack  of  interest.  Doug  plays  the 
board  games  now. 

What  does  he  think  about  the 
strategy  of  teaching?  "Oh,  teaching  is  a 
blast.  You  never  really  understand 
something  until  you  teach  it.  You  learn 
to  think  on  your  feet  .  .  .  You  make 
mistakes  and  learn  from  them."

Jan  Serrano,  Nacogdoches  senior, 
says  that  caring  for  a  home  and  fami- 
ly while  attending  a  university  can  be 
a  positive  experience  for  the  right 
,  person. 

"It  kind  of  gives  you  a  challenge. 
It's  a  little  bit  of  mental  work  after  be- 
ing on  a  ten-month-old's  level,"  Ser- 
rano said.  "It's  nice  to  exercise  your 
mind  a  little." 

She  married  Danny  Serrano  four 
i  months  after  graduating  from  high 
school.  She  was  18  at  the  time.  Last 
year  the  couple's  son,  Matt,  was 
born. 

"It  was  a  blessing,"  Serrano  said. 

An  assistant  manager  at  Taco  Bell, 
her  husband  sometimes  keeps  Matt 
|t  while  the  finance  major  attends 
classes.  Matt  also  stays  with  both 
sets  of  his  grandparents,  who  live 
nearby. 

"He's  not  a  mama's  baby  at  all," 
!  she  said.  "Since  I've  been  going  to 
school,  he's  had  to  be  pretty  ver- 
satile and  accept  new  things,  new 
people." 

Serrano  has  found  she  has  to  do  a 
lot  more  planning  to  efficiently 
allocate  her  time  for  her  studies  and 
her  family.  She  studies  while  Matt  is 
sleeping, and  has  had  to  "put  party- 
ing in  its  place,"  she  said. 

"Having  a  baby  makes  you  realize 

I  that  you  have  a  lot  of  responsibli- 

I  ty — not  only  to  your  family,  but  also 
in  school.  I  think  it  makes  you  try 

I  even  harder  to  do  good  in  school," 
she  said.  "You  try  not  to  let  the  fact 
that  you  have  a  child,  a  husband,  a 

I  house,  prevent  you  from  achieving 
the  goals  you  have  for  yourself.  It 

I  may  make  you  want  to  achieve  them 
even  more." 

"After  you  have  to  allot  so  much 
time  for  a  baby,  a  husband  and  a 
house  you  realize, 'Hey,  I  need  some 
time  for  me.'  So  I  use  mine  going  to 

I  school."

Teressa  Ingram,  Palestine  senior  and 
fashion  merchandising  major,  is  not  your 
ordinary  small  town  girl.  Some  of 
Teressa's  unusual  attire  has  captured  the 
attention  of  fellow  students  on  campus.  "I 
don't  mind  people  staring;  it  just  means 
that  they  notice  me,"  she  said. 

"I  like  clothes  that  are  different  but  eye 
catching.  There's  nothing  that  I  like  better 
than  to  see  an  exceptionally  well-dressed 
male  or  female  strolling  across  campus," 
she  said. 

Here  at  SFA,  Teressa  is  the  publicity  of- 
ficer of  the  Mamselles/Esquires  and  also 
the  vice  president  of  the  fashion  merchan- 
dising club.  She  spends  much  of  her  time 
painting  for  local  merchants  to  obtain  ex- 
tra spending  money  for  some  of  her  ex- 
travagant clothing. 

After  graduating,  she  plans  to  go  to 
Dallas  and  work  for  a  designer  who  deals 
in  men's  clothing.  "My  ultimate  goal  in  life 
is  to  live  in  New  York  where  I  can  design 
clothes  for  the  very  avant  garde,"  Teressa 
said.

Working  with  the  elderly  has  been  a 
rewarding  experience  for  Marilyn 
Wright,  Kirby ville  senior. 

"I  feel  like  I  gain  so  much  just  talking 
to  them,"  Wright  said.  "I  get  the  feeling 
they're  just  thankful  for  everything  — 
every  meal,  every  day." 

The  21-year-old  started  working  with 
the  elderly  during  her  freshman  year  in 
high  school,  but  she  didn't  choose 
gerontology — the  study  of  aging — as  a 
second  major  until  her  junior  year  in  col- 
lege. This  time  difference  can  be  traced 
to  a  lack  of  publicity  about  the  geron- 
tology program  at  SFA,  she  said. 

Wright's  first  major  is  marketing,  but 
her  main  interest  is  in  aging.  After 
graduating,  she  plans  to  attend  Trinity 
University  in  San  Antonio  to  work 
towards  a  master's  degree  in  health 
care  administration,  she  said. 

She  works  as  an  assistant  office 
manager  at  the  Nacogdoches  Senior 
Center  after  having  finished  200  hours 
in  a  gerontology  internship  with  the  Ac- 
cess Center  for  the  Elderly,  a  referral 
program  to  help  elderly  persons  with 
multiple  problems. 

Besides  regular  duties,  she  lends  a 
hand  at  the  center  wherever  she  is 
needed  at  the  time — with  office  paper- 
work, kitchen  help  for  too-busy  cooks 
or  Access  Center  problems. 

Wright  would  like  to  try  living  and 
working  in  a  large  city  after  getting  her 
master's  degree,  even  though  she 
describes  herself  as  a  country  girl. 

"I  always  want  to  try  new  things," 
she  said.

When  she  graduates  in  May,  senior 
Starr  Suires,  will  have  just  begun  her 
academic  journey  since  she  plans  to 
eventually  get  a  doctoral  degree  in 
psychology. 

Starr  came  to  SFA  from  Lamar 
University  in  Beaumont.  She  says 
"there  was  no  college  atmosphere  (at 
Lamar)  and  I  wanted  that." 

The  psychology  major  joined  Gamma 
Sigma  Sigma,  a  service  sorority,  at 
SFA.  She  changed  her  major  from 
education  to  psychology  after  her  first 
semester  here  after  working  with  some 
young  children  and  discovering 
teaching  wasn't  for  her. 

Besides  her  activities  in  the  sorority 
which  she  says  often  involves  "helping 
people  who  need  help,"  Starr  is  resear- 
ching suicide  with  Dr.  Bruce  Bailey, 
associate  professor  of  psychology. 

Starr  says,  "It's  not  an  easy  thing  to 
do.  There's  no  one  around  to  tell  about 
it."  The  goal  of  Dr.  Bailey's  research  is 
to  find  some  of  the  underlying  causes  of 
one  person's  suicide  that  might  help  so- 
meone else,  according  to  Starr. 

Research  mainly  involves  finding  em- 
pirical evidence  which  Starr  says  is 
necessary  in  psychology  but  is  not  her 
main  area  of  interest.  She  wants  to 
work  closely  with  people;  so  she  is  plan- 
ning graduate  work  as  a  clinical 
psychologist. 

Her  study  of  psychology  has  led  her 
to  question  what  she  calls  "pop 
psychology"  which  seems  to  offer 
magical  solutions  to  human  problems. 
Although  it  is  interesting  in  a  romantic 
sort  of  way,  Starr  says,  pop  psychology 
may  not  be  based  on  empirical 
evidence,  and  this  can  be  dangerous. 

Starr  enjoys  reading  for  pleasure, 
calligraphy  and  is  an  avid  fan  of  Star 
Trek.  "I  watch  the  reruns  every  night," 
she  said.

Senior  Britt  Brannon  first  came  to 
SFA  when  most  of  the  class  of  1985 
were  still  in  junior  high  school.  After 
graduating  from  R.L.  Turner  High 
School  in  Carrollton  in  1975,  Britt  came 
to  SFA  but  stayed  only  through  the 
spring  of  1976. 

During  his  first  year,  Britt  says  he 
was  not  serious  about  his  grades.  He 
dropped  out  of  college  and  went  to 
Dallas  to  try  and  break  into  professional 
theatre. 

His  ambitions  to  become  an  actor  led 
him  to  a  few  experiences  with  the 
Dallas  Repertory  Theatre  and  Theatre 
Three.  However,  most  of  the  time,  Britt 
found  himself  working  construction. 
Realizing  he  needed  the  experience, 
education  and  degree  that  college  of- 
fers, he  returned  to  SFA.  He  says  his 
goal  is  to  become  a  steadily  working 
actor. 

Britt  saw  that,  for  him,  the  best  way 
to  afford  to  go  back  to  school  was 
through  the  service.  In  1978,  he  joined 
the  Navy  and  began  a  three  year  career 
as  a  radar  operator.  During  his  naval 
career,  Britt  travelled  to  the  Orient, 
Australia  and  Africa,  and  was  stationed 
at  Pearl  Harbor. 

In  looking  back  at  this  time  away 
from  college,  Britt  says  his  work,  along 
with  his  naval  experiences,  taught  him 
a  great  deal  about  the  outside  world, 
responsibilities  and  himself. 

In  the  summer  of  1982,  eager  to 
resume  his  college  studies,  Britt  re- 
turned to  SFA  and  has  been  taking 
classes  every  semester.  He  will 
graduate  with  honors  this  spring.  As  he 
says,  "There's  no  room  at  the  bottom, 
only  room  at  the  top."

Four  miles  from  SFA  on  Melrose  Road  sits 
a  cozy  woodframe  house  which  Texarkana, 
Texas,  junior,  Michelle  Meche,  helped 
renovate  from  a  barn  into  a  home  between 
April  and  July  of  1984.  Meche  lived  there 
from  July  to  November. 

"The  house  was  built  in  1870  by  black 
farmers,"  Meche  said.  There  is  a  slave 
graveyard  with  six  gravesites  located  near 
the  house. 

Cleaning  cow  patties  off  the  floor  of  the 
barn,  scrubbing  floors  and  walls  with  a 
hogshair  brush,  stuffing  jute  between 
wooden  planks  in  the  floor  and  staining  the 
ceilings  of  several  rooms  were  only  a  few  of 
the  things  required  to  make  the  place 
liveable. 

"The  home  had  not  been  used,  except  as  a 
barn,  since  the  1920s,"  Meche  said.  While 
helping  Rob  Harris,  the  owner  of  the  house 
remodel  it,  Michelle  attended  classes  and 
worked  part-time  in  the  Geography  Lab. 

She  has  been  at  SFA  three  years  and  is 
majoring  in  English  with  a  minor  in  biology. 
"The  reason  I  go  is  to  study  things  I  like. 
What  I  want  to  do  is  be  a  free  lance  writer.  I 
want  to  travel  and  write." 

Michelle's  interest  in  old  things  has  caused 
her  to  amass  quite  a  collection  of  old  coke 
bottles  and  to  explore  any  place  that  looks  in- 
teresting and  doesn't  say  "no  trespassing." 
She  picked  up  some  fossils  during  a  trip  to 
New  Braunsfels  during  October.  Michelle's 
talents  include  playing  the  guitar  and  old 
irons  and  writing  poetry  and  short  stories.  "It 
(poetry)  was  a  natural  outlet  for  me.  I  was 
always  too  shy  to  talk,"  she  said. 

After  she  moved  into  the  house,  Michelle 
says  she  noticed  the  cracks  between  the 
bricks  in  front  of  the  fireplace  were  filled  with 
sand.  She  vacuumed  it  up.  "Rob  (the  owner) 
came  in  and  he  just  died  laughing,"  Michelle 
said.  The  bricks  were  being  held  in  position 
by  the  sand.  That's  what  happens  when  a 
20th  century  college  student  meets  the 
technology  of  the  1800s.

John  C.  Williams,  Tyler  junior,  hopes 
to  make  a  pro  football  team  someday. 

But  unlike  others  on  the  Jacks  who 
are  almost  twice  his  size,  Williams 
hopes  to  make  it  as  a  manager. 

Along  with  SFA  head  equipment 
manager  Greg  Payne  and  John  Hirsch, 
Dallas  freshman,  Williams  polishes 
helmets,  folds  towels,  fixes  equipment, 
washes  jerseys  and  pants,  and  does 
anything  else  the  players  need.  Add  that 
to  a  heavy  school  schedule,  and  you 
have  one  of  the  harder,  and  more- 
unsung,  positions  on  the  team. 

Both  Williams  and  Hirsch  played  foot- 
ball; Williams  for  five  years,  Hirsch  for 
12.  But  both  J.C.  and  J.H.,  as  they  are 
called,  are  managers  for  different 
reasons.  Williams  hopes  to  be  a  coach 
in  high  school  after  spending  some 
time — at  least  four  years,  according  to 
Williams — with  a  pro  team.  His 
preferences  include  the  Dallas 
Cowboys,  New  Orleans  Saints,  Houston 
Oilers,  or  the  G.S.F.L.  Los  Angeles 
Express  or  Baltimore  Stars. 

What  is  Williams'  biggest  joy  about 
being  a  manager?  "My  biggest  thrill  is 
to  watch  the  players  perform,"  Williams 
said. 

Hirsch,  who  played  at  Newman  Smith 
High  School  in  Dallas,  said  he  wanted  to 
see  how  a  college  team  operated.  He 
also  said  he  wanted  to  still  be  a  part  of 
football,  as  a  knee  injury  in  high  school 
ended  his  playing  days. 

Hirsch  noted  one  of  the  drawbacks  of 
being  a  manager  is  getting  chewed  out 
by  coaches,  although  the  coach  is  really 
upset  at  a  player's  performance.

Hirsch  also  said  being  a  manager  had  its  good  points  as 
well.  "For  freshmen  it  keeps  you  from  getting  homesick. 
It  also  keeps  you  in  shape,"  Hirsc  said. 

"They're  real  important.  A  good  team  has  good 
managers,"  SFA  head  coach  Jim  Hess  said.

Ken  Koehn,  Deer  Park  junior,  is  a  jour- 
nalist who  will  express  his  opinion  freely. 
Koehn  is  presently  an  Associate  Editor  for 
The  Pine  Log,  and  previously  served  as  an 
Associate  Editor  in  the  Fall  semester  of 
1983.  He  is  also  a  member  of  the  A  Cappella 
choir,  and  sings  bass.  His  other  musical 
talents  include  playing  the  piano  and  the 
drums. 

Koehn  decided  to  attend  SFA  to  escape 
the  hectic  pace  of  Houston.  "I  wanted  a 
change  of  pace,  and  Nacogdoches  seemed 
laid  back,"  he  said.  Koehn  added  that  there 
were  no  academic  considerations  in  this 
decision. 

Among  things  that  Koehn  dislikes  about 
SFA  are  students  who  expect  professors  to 
present  material  for  them  to  regurgitate,  and 
those  who  will  not  try  to  gain  practical  ex- 
perience. "People  don't  think  enough  of 
themselves  here.  Everyone  wants 
everything  handed  to  them  on  a  platter  to 
memorize,"  he  said. 

Another  complaint  Koehn  levels  against 
students  is  criticism  of  The  Pine  Log,  when 
the  students  take  no  action  to  make  sugges- 
tions. "One  thing  that  doesn't  go  over  real 
well  with  me  is  verbal  flak  in  class  or  the 
hallways  about  the  paper,"  he  said. 

"Criticism  here  and  there  is  appreciated, 
but  I'm  not  impressed  with  people  who  think 
they  know  how  the  paper  should  be  run,  and 
are  too  lazy  to  write  a  letter  to  the  editor,"  he 
commented. 

Among  Koehn's  personal  philosophies  is 
"Don't  be  afraid  to  talk  to  important  people. 
They  put  their  pants  on  one  leg  at  a  time." 
He  also  adds  "you'd  be  surprised  who  you 
can  talk  to  if  you  bug  a  secretary  long 
enough."  He  put  his  philosophy  into  action 
this  year  by  securing  an  interview  with 
syndicated  columnist  Jack  Anderson.

Houstonian  Dana  Hamilton  says  she  is  like 
most  SFA  juniors.  Majoring  in  general 
business,  she  has  a  part-time  job  as  a 
waitress. 

However,  besides  her  studies  and  waitress- 
ing,  Dana's  face  is  seen  by  virtually 
thousands  of  people.  The  significant  dif- 
ference between  Dana  and  hundreds  of  other 
SFA  juniors  is  that  she  makes  television 
commercials. 

In  February  of  1983,  Dana's  roommate,  a 
photographer,  took  some  pictures  of  her  and 
the  two  of  them  took  the  photos  to  the  von 
Allmon  advertising  agency  of  Nacogdoches. 
They  went  home  and  anxiously  awaited  a  rep- 
ly. And  waited  .  .  .  And  waited  .  .  . 

She  says  that  her  first  "walkie-talkie"  was 
very  scary,  but  since  then,  she  has  gained 
skill  and  confidence  in  the  television  advertis- 
ing field.  A  "walkie-talkie"  requires  the  model 
to  walk  around  the  set  while  talking. 

In  fact,  she  was  asked  to  host  "Women  of 
East  Texas,"  a  locally  produced  television 
program,  but  had  to  decline  the  offer  due  to 
her  already  busy  schedule. 

Dana  is  now  considering  the  possibility  of 
having  a  career  in  television  advertising  and 
is  very  optimistic  about  the  future.  In  the 
meantime,  she  continues  to  work  her  way 
through  college  and  insists  that  she  is  "just 
another  college  student."

When  walking  through  the  University 
Center  you  may  have  seen  smiling  Karen 
Barcelo  at  the  information  desk. 

"1  really  love  working  here;  I  meet  all  kinds 
of  interesting  people,"  commented  Barcelo,  a 
Spring  junior. 

Karen  loves  to  get  involved  with  many  ac- 
tivities here  at  SFA.  Some  of  the  clubs  that 
Karen  is  a  member  of  include:  Sigma  Chi  little 
sisters,  Delta  Delta  Delta  sorority,  Phi  Chi 
Theta,  business  fraternity,  Phi  Eta  Sigma, 
honor  fraternity  and  the  Order  of  Omega.  She 
is  currently  on  the  Dean's  List  and  the  Presi- 
dent's honor  roll. 


"I  like  to  be  involved;  I'd  rather  have  too 
many  things  to  do,  than  not  have  anything  to 
do,"  Barcelo  said. 

"There  are  so  many  interesting  and  new 
people  that  I  meet  and  get  to  help  every  day; 
it's  just  incredible,"  Barcelo  said. 

Karen  also  answers  the  telephone  and  any 
questions  asked  by  passing  students. 

The  best  reason  that  Karen  could  come  up 
with  for  working  at  the  information  desk, 
besides  gettting  paid  for  it,  was  that  she  could 
learn  so  much  about  SFA  and  the  people  that 
come  here.

Piano  junior  Steve  Nucci  is  a  marketing 
major  and  a  very  ambitious  young  man. 
Since  enrolling  at  SFA  in  1981,  Steve  has 
created  his  own  business,  Nucci  Enterprises. 
Starting  out  with  just  contracts,  he  now  cares 
for  15  lawn  complexes  in  the  Nacogdoches 
area. 

"I  decided  to  come  to  SFA  after  going 
through  orientation  and  finding  that  I  really 
liked  the  campus  and  the  people,"  he  said. 

Steve  has  also  been  involved  in  many  of 
SFA's  extracurricular  activities.  "I  played 
rugby  for  SFA  my  first  two  years  while  going 
to  school  and  working  full-time." 

After  being  a  social  affiliate  for  a  year,  he 
pledged  Sigma  Tau  Gamma  fraternity.  Steve 
has  been  completely  self-supporting  since 
coming  to  SFA. 

"I  have  set  goals  for  myself,  one  of  which  is 
to  obtain  my  real  estate  license  before  I 
graduate  in  order  to  help  me  get  started  in 
business." 

"After  graduation,"  Steve  said,  "1  plan  on 
working  for  the  other  guy  until  I  can  save 
enough  money  to  start  my  own  business."

"Deaf  people  are  a  lot  more  open  than  hear- 
ing people.  When  they  find  somebody  who'll 
care  and  talk  to  them,  they'll  tell  their  real 
feelings,"  Courtney  Hill,  Fort  Worth 
sophomore  said. 

Hill,  19,  first  came  into  contact  with  the 
deaf  while  singing  in  the  Texas  Girls  Choir, 
which  did  several  songs  that  had  been 
choreographed  to  sign  language  and  visited  a 
center  for  the  deaf. 

Two  years  ago  Hill  taught  swimming 
lessons  to  a  4-year-old  deaf  girl  at  a  YWCA. 
The  girl  was  just  learning  sign  language,  and 
she  and  Hill  made  up  their  own  signs. 

The  sophomore  learned  true  sign  language 
in  manual  communication  classes  at  SFA  and 
acted  as  a  notetaker  for  the  deaf  in  the  fall. 

Hill  said  that  she's  learned  a  lot  working 
and  being  friends  with  deaf  students,  especial- 
ly the  problems  associated  with  attending  col- 
lege. She  said  she's  had  to  attempt  to  explain 
such  things  as  word  definitions,  as  well  as 
deal  with  problems  with  teachers  talking  too 
fast  or  turning  their  backs  to  the  class  so  that 
students  can't  lip  read. 

"I  really  respect  any  deaf  person  that's  in  a 
university,  because  what  they're  going 
through  is  incredible,"  she  said. 

A  lot  of  people  are  scared  to  use  sign 
language  because  it  shows  that  you're  deaf," 
Hill  said.  "Living  in  a  college  environment,  it's 
not  cool  to  be  deaf,  unless  you  accept  it." 

"Most  deaf  people  come  to  a  hearing  col- 
lege to  be  in  a  hearing  world.  I  kind  of  like  to 
get  the  flavor  of  the  deaf  world." 

After  graduation,  the  sophomore  said  she 
would  like  to  get  a  "people  job,"  and  would 
like  to  continue  to  use  her  sign  language.  She 
is  considering  criminal  justice  as  her  major 
with  a  minor  in  psychology.

After  seeing  her  first  football  game  at  the 
age  of  15,  Spring  sophomore  Georgina  Key 
says  she  feels  life  in  America  is  the  greatest. 

Born  and  raised  in  Epsom,  Surney, 
England,  her  travels  have  taken  her 
throughout  Western  Europe  on  yearly  vaca- 
tions and  to  Kuwait  because  of  one  of  her 
father's  many  job  transfers. 

One  of  those  transfers  brought  her  father  to 
the  United  States  for  a  job  opportunity  in 
banking. 

Georgina  and  the  rest  of  her  family  moved 
here  in  1980  and  her  excitement  and  anticipa- 
tion were  met  with  friendliness  and  humidity. 

"It  felt  like  there  was  a  blanket  around  my 
face!"  she  exclaimed  in  a  delicate  British  ac- 
cent. "There  isn't  any  humidity  in  England." 

Georgina's  new  life  in  the  United  States  has 
proven  to  be  an  adventure.  In  looking  back 
she  says,  "I  loved  it  right  from  the  start. 
Everyone  was  so  nice." 

After  graduating  from  Spring  High  School 
in  Spring,  Texas,  she  decided  to  take  advan- 
tage of  the  greater  educational  opportunities 
here  and  came  to  SFA  in  the  fall  of  1983. 
Georgina's  major  is  communication. 

Due  to  much  stricter  grade  requirements, 
the  opportunity  to  attend  college  in  England 
is  not  readily  available  as  in  the  United  States. 

Since  listening  to  her  first  football  game 
over  the  telephone,  "our  dad  put  the  phone 
over  a  television  so  we  could  hear  what  the 
game  sounded  like,"  she  has  become  eagerly 
optimistic  about  her  future  in  the  United 
States.  This  is  made  evident  as  she 
remembers  her  first  expectations  when  mov- 
ing here  from  England.  "I  expected  so  much 
and  it's  turned  out  to  be  better  than  I 
imagined!"

A  college  education  includes  the  opportuni- 
ty to  pursue  many  interests  and  talents  to 
determine  which  field  one  feels  most  comfor- 
table in.  For  LaPorte  sophomore  Mike  Harris, 
that  decision  is  quickly  becoming  more  and 
more  clear. 

A  talented  artist,  Mike  is  also  an  ac- 
complished drummer.  His  first  ambitions  to 
be  an  artist  have  been  dampened  since  first 
coming  to  SFA  in  the  fall  of  '83,  but  his 
musical  interests  have. 

"I  studied  art  for  a  while  and  found  that  to 
make  it  rapidly  marketable,  you  almost  have 
to  take  all  of  the  creativity  out  of  it.  To  me, 
the  music  world  seems  much  freer  than  the 
art  world  today,  and  much  more  alive." 

This  realization  led  to  Mike's  decision  to 
put  down  his  paint  brushes  and  pick  up  his 
drumsticks.  He  first  began  playing  the  drums 
while  in  the  fifth  grade  and  was  in  a  few  bands 
while  in  high  school.  He  now  plays  in  three 
bands. 

Rather  than  changing  his  major  to  music, 
Mike  is  now  in  marketing. 

"I  didn't  want  to  have  the  same  structured 
atmosphere  in  my  music  that  had  discourag- 
ed me  so  much  in  art." 

Mike  says  that  his  drummer  idols  Bill 
Bruford  and,  to  a  lesser  extent,  Phil  Collins, 
inspire  him  to  pursue  his  unique  style. 

"The  main  stuff  I  play  is  Jazz  and  Rock  Fu- 
sion," he  explains.  "When  I  play  my  drums,  I 
just  play  'til  I  find  the  right  sound.  Something 
no  one  else  has  done." 

For  now,  Mike  Harris  will  study  marketing 
("...so  I  don't  starve  while  I'm  trying  to  make 
it  as  a  drummer")  while  further  developing 
his  musical  talents. 

He  insists  that  by  not  surrendering  his  own 
personal  style  and  creativity,  he  will  be  able 
to  pursue  his  goals  and  be  the  best  at  what  he 
does.

Glf  Stensland  is  not  your  everyday 
sophomore  business  major.  Glf  is  from  Oslo, 
Norway,  which  is  a  very  long  way  from 
Nacogdoches,  Texas.  Unlike  most  students  at 
SFA,  Glf  didn't  come  here  for  the  trees. 

"I  came  to  SFA  because  this  is  where  a  lot 
of  my  friends  from  Norway  come,"  Glf  said. 

When  Glf  isn't  studying  or  with  his  friends, 
you  can  probably  find  him  working  at  the 
modern  language  lab. 

"I  work  at  the  lab  about  nine  hours  a  week; 
I  really  enjoy  helping  the  students  out,"  Glf 
said. 

Glf  speaks  Norwegian,  English  and  some 
German.  "Here  in  Texas  most  people  take 
Spanish  as  a  second  language,  but  in  Norway 
we  learn  English  and  German,  since  these  are 
the  languages  most  spoken  in  the  European 
countries,"  Glf  said. 

Some  of  Glf's  hobbies  include  sailing  and 
windsurfing.  "Gnfortunately,  there  is  not 
much  wind  on  the  lakes  here  in  East  Texas; 
so  I  don't  get  to  do  much  windsurfing,"  Glf 
said. 

Glf  said  the  main  thing  that  is  different  here 
are  the  girls.  "In  my  country  when  a  boy  asks 
a  girl  out,  the  girl  does  not  expect  nor  want 
the  boy  to  pay  for  her;  however,  here  it  is  a 
completely  different  situation,"  Glf 
commented.

Desire  to  teach  led 
nurse  back  to  school 


By  Cathy  Dudley 

When  Claudette  Allen,  a  licensed 
vocational  nurse,  arrived  at  college  to 
take  her  ACT  test,  the  44-year-old 
mother  of  three  says,  "I  almost  didn't 
get  out  of  the  car." 

Allen  recalls  her  first  real  step  toward 
becoming  a  college  student  at  the  age 
of  38  with  a  smile.  She  says,  "Girls  from 
my  family  didn't  go  to  college.  My 
parents  wouldn't  allow  me  to  go  to  col- 
lege." Although  Allen  was  the  third  top 
student  in  her  high  school  graduating 
class  and  wanted  to  become  a  doctor, 
she  got  married  at  17  and  became  a 
nurse  instead. 

"People  laughed  at  me  when  I  started 
(back  to  school).  They  are  in  the  same 
position  now  as  they  were  six  years 
ago,"  Allen  said.  In  1978  she  began 
attending  North  Harris  County  College. 
During  the  next  several  years  she  went 
to  college  year-round,  working  full-time 
as  a  nurse  and  attending  classes  at 
night. 

Allen  has  been  a  nurse  since  1960 
and  still  loves  it.  She  ways  she  enjoys 
helping  people  and  establishing  within 
her  patients  the  belief  that  they  can 
recover.  In  August  of  1983  Allen 
decided  to  resign  from  nursing  full-time. 
Since  September  of  1983  she  has 
worked  as  a  nurse  on  the  weekends  in 
Baytown. 

After  returning  to  college  she  decided 


to  become  a  bioilogy  teacher  and  chose 
this  subjecgt  as  her  first  major.  Her  se- 
cond major  is  psychology  and  she  is 
considering  graduate  work  in  counsel- 
ing. Allen  said  she  came  to  SFA 
because,  "I  wanted  my  degree  to  count. 
SFA's  reputation  for  teachers  is  great." 
Her  family  has  sometimes  been  sur- 
prised that  she  has  stayed  in  college  but 
they  have  supported  her.  She  tells  her 
kids,  "You've  got  to  want  it  (an  educa- 
tion) from  the  gut  out.  It's  not  a  whim." 

Allen's  daughter  Debbie,  25, 
graduated  from  Texas  ASM  and  is  a 
petroleum  engineer.  Her  son,  Bill,  18, 
attends  North  Harris  County  College 
and  is  planning  to  become  a  lawyer. 
Mary  is  her  youngest  child  at  15.  Allen 
says  she  raised  her  children  to  attend 
college.  She  believes  a  college  degree  is 
important  because  in  life,  "It's  not  what 
you  know.  It's  a  piece  of  paper  telling 
what  you  know." 

Allen  has  has  to  study  hard  in  col- 
lege. When  she  worked  full-time,  she 
sometimes  studied  all  night.  To  be  with 
her  family  she  learned  to  study  with  the 
TV  playing.  She  says  she  has  never  had 
a  generation  gap  with  her  kids  and  has 
formed  many  friendships  with  college 
students.  Allen  changed  her  style  of 
dress  form  blouses  and  skirts  to  jackets 
and  pants  to  fit  in  at  SFA.  She  dyed  her 
white  hair  blond  which  really  changed 


Marc  Morrison 

attitudes  toward  her,  she  says.  Allen 
commutes  to  SFA  from  Cleveland 
which  is  104  miles  from  Nacogdoches, 
one  way.  She  usually  has  8  a.m.  classes 
so  she  gets  up  at  4:30  in  the  morning  to 
drive  to  school.  She  grew  up  in 
Cleveland  and  lives  10  miles  out  in  the 
country  "on  a  dead-end  road." 

When  she  begins  teaching,  Allen  says 
she  would  like  to  start  a  high  school 
biology  program  in  which  students  can 
diversify  and  study  what  interests  them 
most.  When  Allen  graduates  this  spring, 
she  will  have  spent  six  years  working 
toward  her  bachelor's  degree. 

Undaunted  by  time,  age  or  inex- 
perience, Claudette  Allen  has  proved  by 
hard  work  and  determination  that  it's 
never  too  late  to  reach  a  goal  or  fulfill  a 
dream.

"Parenting  in  the  '80s"  was  Dorothy  Debolt's  topic.  Mrs.  Debolt  and  her 
husband  have  20  children  -  14  of  whom  are  handicapped,  emotionally 
disturbed  or  victims  of  abuse. 


Students  organize  Parents  Day 

By  Mark  Palace 


The  10th  annual  SFA  Residence  Hall 
Association  Parents  Day  was  met  with 
great  enthusiasm  despite  the  soggy 
East  Texas  weather  which  could  have 
dampened  the  spirits  of  the 
participants. 

According  to  Bonita  Jacobs,  director 
of  residence  life,  Parents  Day  has  grown 
steadily  due  to  the  efforts  of  the  large 
number  of  Residence  Hall  Association 
students  involved. 

"It  is  a  student  planned,  organized 
and  run  activity,"  she  said. 

This  year,  the  association's  efforts 
were  combined  with  those  of  Gniversity 
Food  Services  to  provide  a  barbecue 
dinner;  GC  Programs,  to  provide  guest 
speaker  Dorothy  Debolt;  and  academic 
departments  which  provided  special 
tours  and  mini  lectures. 

Charlotte  Rasche,  Galveston  junior 
and  Parents  Day  chairperson,  headed 


the  Parents  Day  committee  to  aid  in 
organizing  the  day's  events.  The  com- 
mittee included  Anissa  Borg,  Angie 
Gaa,  Kim  Karnes  and  Nan  McAdams. 

Jacobs  said  that  strong  evaluations 
are  made  each  year  in  order  to  improve 
on  the  day's  events. 

"We're  trying  to  professionalize  it," 
she  said.  "We're  trying  to  make  it  more 
of  an  organized  event." 

Parents  Day  '84  proved  to  be  more  of 
an  organized  event  when  the  rains 
forced  the  barbecue  dinner  to  move  in- 
side the  Coliseum.  The  2,300  people 
were  entertained  by  the  East  Texas  Str- 
ing Ensemble.  The  ensemble  includes 
Dr.  Francis  Abernethy,  professor  of 
English;  Dr.  Stanley  G.  Alexander,  pro- 
fessor of  English;  Dr.  Charles  T.  Nail, 
associate  professor  of  history,  and  Ron- 
nie Wolfe. 

Widespread    student  participation 


also  helped  the  organization  of  the  day's 
events.  Residence  halls  had  receptions 
showing  parents  their  son's  and 
daughter's  homes  away  from  home. 

The  highlight  of  the  day  was  Dorothy 
Debolt's  speech,  "Parenting  in  the  80s," 
held  in  the  Grand  Ballroom,  GC,  to  a 
standing  room  only  crowd.  Mrs.  Debolt 
began  a  movement  to  find  homes  for 
children  once  thought  of  as  unadop- 
table.  She  and  her  husband,  Robert,  are 
the  parents  of  20  children — 14  of  whom 
are  handicapped,  emotionally  disturbed 
or  victims  of  abuse. 

The  rainy  weather  seemed  to  par- 
ticipate by  testing  the  versatility  and 
professionism  of  all  involved.  The  10th 
annual  Parents  Day  was  largely  suc- 
cessful due  to  the  combined  efforts  of 
teachers,  organizations,  students  and, 
of  course,  parents.

Students  enjoy  working 


By  Carol  Fougerat 

How  would  you  feel  if  you  had  to  get  up 
for  an  8  o'clock  class  after  working  until  1  or 
2  in  the  morning?  Many  SFA  students  know 
this  feeling  all  too  well. 

Trying  to  hold  down  a  part-time  job,  main- 
tain good  grades  and  have  some  kind  of 
social  life  is  far  from  impossible,  but  it  takes 
a  good  deal  of  self-discipline  and 
perseverance. 

"It  takes  a  lot  of  discipline  to  keep  up  with 
work  and  school;  you've  got  to  make  a 
schedule  and  keep  your  priorities  straight," 
said  Robbie  Meyers,  Nacogdoches  junior. 

Meyers  works  four  nights  a  week  as  a 
cook  at  K  Bob's  Steakhouse.  "Someone  that 
goes  to  school,  works  and  graduates  in  a 
reasonable  amount  of  time  has  a  lot  going 
for  him,"  Meyers  said. 

Students  take  on  part-time  jobs  for  many 
reasons.  Money  is  the  main  advantage  of  a 
job,  but  some  students  work  because  of  the 
satisfaction  and  responsibility  a  job  gives. 

Carol  Morris,  Fort  Worth  graduate  stu- 
dent, started  working  at  Rita's  as  a  waitress 
over  a  year  ago  "just  for  fun.  Working  late 
nights  is  better  in  a  college  town  because  the 
clientele  is  a  lot  of  fun,  and  you  know  most 
of  the  people  that  come  in,"  Morris  said.  She 
also  said  that  although  the  job  is  fun,  it's 
sometimes  really  hard  to  get  for  classes  in 
the  morning. 

Working  in  a  college  town  such  as 
Nacogdoches  is  easier  than  working  in  a 
larger  town  or  city,  she  believes.  Since  most 
of  the  employees  of  a  business  are  college 
students,  management  tends  to  be  more  le- 
nient about  the  hours  the  students  work. 


Morris  said  the  management  at  Rita's  is 
usually  willing  to  work  around  the  student's 
schedule  and  understands  that  they  must 
take  time  off  for  tests  and  other  school- 
related  functions. 

Students  also  work  for  the  experience.  "In 
addition  to  being  fun,  working  at  Mazzio's  is 
good  experience  and  will  relate  directly  to 
my  general  business  degree,"  said  David 
Poag,  Richardson  junior.  Poag,  who  is  work- 
ing his  way  through  school,  had  been 
employed  at  Mazzio's  Pizza  for  four  months. 

Although  money  isn't  the  only  reason 
Poag  works,  he  said  his  college  experience 
has  been  enriched  by  his  part-time  job 
because  it  helps  him  realize  "how  much  we 
take  our  parents  and  financial  aid  for 
granted." 

Many  students  work  because  they  have 
to.  Paying  for  a  college  education  is  expen- 
sive, and  students  who  work  their  way 
through  college  must  have  the  drive  to  want 
their  education. 

In  addition  to  odd  jobs,  Clayton  Moore, 
Bellaire  junior,  works  25  hours  a  week  as  a 
bartender  at  the  Old  Mill  Club  in  the  Holiday 
Inn.  Moore  is  finding  it  hard  to  work  late 
nights  and  keep  up  his  grades. 

"Perseverance  is  a  major  quality  in  suc- 
cessfully putting  yourself  through  college," 
Moore  said.  "It's  rough,  but  you  have  to  real- 
ly want  that  education  and  do  it." 

Residence  hall  assistants  and  desk 
workers  also  work  late  and  sometimes  in- 
convenient hours.  But  the  job  often  calls  for 
shifts,  which  still  give  students  ample  time 
to  get  homework  done.  Most  desk  workers 
find  their  working  hours  are  when  they  get 
the  most  schoolwork  done.

Freshman 


For  most  freshmen  a  school  day  begins  with  the  fight  for  a  dorm  shower,  breakfast 
in  the  cafeteria  and  a  dash  to  classes.  Candy  Kovalcik,  Baytown  freshman,  begins  her 
day  waking  up  to  the  cries  of  her  five  month  old  daughter,  Kaci,  and  hustling  her  hus- 
band Tommy  off  to  school.  When  Tommy  returns  to  take  care  of  Kaci,  Candy  leaves 
for  her  classes. 

"Everything  has  worked  out  real  well  so  far."  Candy  said.  "It's  hard  to  find  time  to 
study  sometimes  though/* 

Having  classes  to  study  for,  a  part-time  job  and  an  infant  to  raise,  make  up  a  unique 
challenge  few  freshmen  have  to  meet. 

Does  she  miss  the  social  lifestyle  many  of  her  peers  enjoy?  "Now  that  Kaci's  here, 
we  don't  miss  it,"  she  replied.  "Before  she  was  born  I  did.  Most  of  my  friends  went  to 
Sam  Houston  and  I  was  unhappy  I  couldn't  be  with  them  to  share  the  same 
experiences. 

I'm  so  proud  of  Tommy  and  Kaci  both.  I  look  at  it  this  way:  we  started  (marriage 
and  family)  earlier  than  anyone  else.  School  doesn't  last  forever.  All  my  friends  will 
graduate,  get  married  and  have  children  .  .  .  we  just  started  early." 

An  education  major,  Candy  believes  having  a  young  child  is  an  advantage.  "Being 
in  the  teaching  field  has  given  me  more  incentive  to  help  Kaci  learn  and  to  teach 
others."

Freshman  Helen  Lo  was  born  in  Taiwan,  where  her  father 
and  grandfather  are  generals  in  the  army.  "My  grandfather 
is  a  diplomat  for  El  Salvador/'  Helen  said.  'The  last  time  I 
saw  my  grandfather  was  when  I  visited  him  during  the  big 


uproar  there/' 

As  a  unique  individual  to  East  Texas  and  SFA,  Helen  feels 
that  people  here  treat  Orientals  differently.  "I  guess  it's 
because  they  are  not  used  to  us,"  Helen  said. 

When  Helen  first  came  to  Texas,  she  was  15  and  lived 
with  her  aunt.  "I  had  a  lot  of  freedom  when  I  lived  with  my 
aunt  in  Houston.  Unfortunately,  my  parents  didn't  like  the 
idea  of  me  being  'let  loose*  there." 

As  a  result  of  this,  Helen's  parents  had  her  move  to 
Nacogdoches  to  live  with  her  sister,  who  was  a  junior  at 
SFA.  "I  started  school  that  year  at  Nacogdoches  High,  but  I 
spent  most  of  my  time  tagging  along  with  my  sister,"  Helen 
said. 

While  in  high  school,  Helen  helped  to  form  the  Interna- 
tional Student  Association  with  her  brother  and  sister  at 
SFA. 

Helen  is  not  sure  what  she  wants  to  do  with  her  life  yet. 
She  is  confident,  however,  that  she  will  become  involved  in 
many  of  the  campus  activities.

Speaking  fluent  English,  Carlos  Sierra,  whose 
native  language  is  Spanish,  said  his  experiences  in 
America  have  been  different  from  his  expectations  of 
life  here.  The  La  Ceiba,  Honduras,  freshman  expected 
discrimination  against  him  when  he  entered  SFA  in 
January  of  1984  but  found  acceptance  instead. 

Sierra,  who  is  Catholic,  said  the  only  problem  he 
has  had  with  English  since  he  came  to  America  has 
been  at  church.  The  first  time  he  went  to  mass  at  the 
Catholic  Center,  he  realized  he  had  never  memorized 
the  prayers  in  English,  so  he  prayed  softly  in  Spanish 
instead. 

Carlos  was  a  disc  jockey  for  four  years  while  he  at- 
tended high  school  in  Honduras  in  Central  America. 
This  led  him  to  major  in  Radio-TV  at  SFA.  His  major 
reflects  his  interest  in  music.  Carlos  played  the 
keyboard  in  a  band  while  in  the  sixth  grade  and  plays 
the  organ  in  his  church  at  home. 

Because  he  can't  read  or  write  music  but  is  an  avid 
composer,  Sierra  plays  the  piano  by  ear.  By  practicing 
every  day,  he  keeps  his  talent  alive. 

Carlos  rarely  gets  to  converse  in  Spanish  here, 
which  makes  him  miss  home.  He  often  reads  books 
the  library  offers  in  Spanish.  Sierra  said,  "I  try  to  get 
the  most  out  of  everything  I  do."

"It's  a  totally  new  experience  being 
away  from  my  home  and  family;  it's 
like  starting  over,"  commented  Kelly 
Chapman,  Houston  freshman. 

Kelly  decided  to  come  to  SFA,  like 
most  everyone  else,  because  of  the 
campus.  "I  really  like  the  campus,  but  I 
also  came  here  because  I  wanted  to 
start  out  at  a  small  school,"  Kelly  said. 

"There  always  seems  to  be 
something  going  on  and  yet,  on  the 
other  hand,  it's  very  lonely  sometimes 
and  you  feel  like  nobody  cares,"  Kelly 
said. 

Kelly  was  a  cheerleader  at  Westbury 
High  School,  where  she  was  involved  in 
many  activities.  "It's  hard  getting  in- 
volved when  you  come  to  a  new  school, 
but  it  has  been  a  lot  easier  on  me  since  I 
live  in  Steen.  I've  met  lots  of  people 
there  and  we  even  got  a  flag  football 


through  sorority  rush.  "I  feel  that  would 
be  a  good  way  to  meet  people  and  really 
get  involved,"  Kelly  said. 

Being  just  a  freshman,  Kelly  has  a 
while  to  decide  on  what  she  wants  to 
do.  "I'm  really  an  undecided  major;  I'm 
not  sure  what  I  want  to  do  right  now. 
Advertising  is  appealing  to  me,  so  I'm 
looking  toward  a  business  or  com- 
munication degree,"  Kelly  said.

Next  semester,  Kelly  would  like  to  go

Staff  uses  hi-tech  to  gain  hi-touch 


The  1984-85  Student  Publica 
tions  photographic  staff  was  the 
only  branch  of  Student  Publica- 
tions not  to  recieve  a 
technological  improvement  to  go 
along  with  the  Stone  Fort's  hi- 
tech/hi-touch  theme;  both  the 
Stone  Fort  and  The  Pine  Log 
modernized  their  production  dur- 
ing the  year  with  the  installation 
of  word  processing  computer 
systems.  As  a  result,  the  photo 
staff's  imagination  became  its 
high-tech  contribution.  As  Lauren 
Davis'  cover  shot  attests,  imagina- 
tion can  make  up  for  almost  any 
shortcoming. 

Current  and  former  staff 
members  describe  their  jobs  as 
"hazardous  to  one's  grade  point 
average,  but  a  tremendous  learn- 
ing experience."

Editor  gives  challenge; 
thanks  adviser,  staff 


Kudos  and  thanks  go  to  my  adviser  Mrs.  Tina  Benson  for  her 
honesty,  sincerity  and  understanding  as  we  worked  through  the 
uplifting  and  disappointing  times  that  were  a  part  of  publishing 
this  book.  I  owe  a  debt  of  gratitude  to  Jim  Stotts  who  was  patient 
with  us  all  and  listened  to  complaints  and  bad  jokes  for  so  many 
months.  Typevision  and  I  would  never  have  made  it  without  you, 
Jim! 

I'm  grateful  to  Shelly,  Beth,  Katy,  Carol,  Karen  and  Shelia  for 
their  hard  work  on  the  sections  in  this  book.  Each  contributed 
something  special  of  her  own  which  benefited  both  the  book  and 
me  as  I  worked  with  them. 

Kent,  I  thank  for  being  himself,  for  lending  his  ears  as  often  as 
his  hands  and  for  lightening  the  heavy  load  of  so  many  days.  To 
Marc,  Jim,  David,  Meg,  Matt  and  Lauren  I  give  many  thanks.  We 
couldn't  have  made  it  through  without  their  hard  work. 

I  hope  the  opening  and  closing  of  this  book  are  thought- 
provoking  and  will  challenge  you,  our  readers,  to  examine  your 
values  and  expectations  of  the  future  as  they  challenged  me  to  ex- 
amine mine.  I  personally  feel  that  spiritual  values  are  important  to 
consider  as  technology  becomes  more  pervasive  in  our  lives.  My 
feelings  are  reflected  in  the  photo  you  see  on  this  page.  The  idea 
for  it  came  from  James  1:  21-25. 

Before  I  sign  off,  I'd  like  to  thank  the  numerous  people  whose 
names  are  not  listed  here  but  whose  contributions  are  intrinsic.  I'm 
glad  to  have  had  the  opportunity  to  be  editor  of  the  1985  Stone 
Fort,  and  I  trust  that  this  yearbook  will  invoke  some  memories  for 
you  in  the  years  to  come.

The  ideas  explored  in  the  1985  Stone  Fort  cannot  be 
effectively  summed  up  in  one  sentence,  one 
paragraph  or  one  story.  Instead  of  these  we  offer  you 
astronaut  Joseph  P.  Allen's  description  of  the  lan- 
ding of  the  space  shuttle  Discovery  in  November 
1984:  "For  the  three  crew  members  seated  on  the  flight 
deck. ..the  first  real  indicator  of  the  orbitor's  re-entrance  into 
the  atmosphere  is  the  quivering  needle  of  the  G-meter.  For 
days,  the  needle  has  been  fixed  at  zero,  as  if  it  were  painted 


"As  it  slows  and  the  air  no  longer  supports  its  raised 
nose,  the  forward  landing  gear  falls  with  a  jarring 
whump ... " 


on  the  dial. 

"Now  it  shudders  to  life  and  slowly  begins  to  rise.  Then 
there  is  an  unmistakable  whisper  of  rushing  air,  at  first  almost 
too  faint  to  hear,  then  louder  and  louder  still.  A  faint  red  glow 
appears  at  the  edges  of  the  cockpit  windows  then  spreads 
across  them  and  seems  to  curl  up  over  the  fuselage... 

As  it  slows  and  the  air  no  longer  supports  its  raised  nose, 
the  forward  landing  gear  falls  with  a  jarring  whump  ...  A 
spaceship  has  landed  on  earth." 

The  space  shuttle  is  the  only  American  spacecraft  which  can 
accomplish  a  mission,  return  to  Earth  and  be  relaunched  for 
other  missions.  Discovery  is  pictured  here  landing  in  Florida 
November  16,  1984,  after  its  second  mission.  The  space  shuttle 
launched  two  satellites  and  for  the  first  time  retrieved  two 
others  to  be  redeployed.  The  roar  of  the  descending  shuttle 
seemed  to  echo  the  words,  'The  Future  is  Now."  |p

In  Memoriam 

John  Krueger 
Benjamin  Watts 
Scott  Gambrell 


As  we  move  from  on  industriol 
to  on  information  society,  we  will 
use  our  brainpower  to  create  in- 
stead of  our  physical  power,  and 
the  technology  of  the  day  will  ex- 
tend and  enhance  our  mental  abili- 
ty. As  we  take  advantage  of  the 
opportunity  for  job  growth  and  in- 
vestment in  all  the  sunrise  in- 
dustries, we  must  not  lose  sight  of 
the  need  to  balance  the  human 
element  in  the  face  of  all  that 
technology. 

John  Noisbitt,  Megatrends

The  site  of  the  SFA  Observatory  reflects 
both  high-touch  and  high-tech.  High  tech- 
nology  is  changing  society  in  the  1980s  just 
as  barbed  wire  changed  the  American  Frontier.
